Depends, I guess, on what you're trying to get out of it. I use it as a way to burn time while waiting for the bus or the build without feeling as guilty (or gross) as Facebook would. For getting perspectives I might not have thought of that help me synthesize new information. And for scratching the "someone is wrong on the internet!" itch. I probably read 50% of the Ask section and 2-3 items per page of results on front page or newest. You could drink from the firehose if you really wanted to spend every moment of your life on this site, but I prefer to be highly selective about what to read and even more so about what to engage with.
