UA Online Community
I just got an invitation to join the UA GS/1K Online Community. My favoriet question is
and the only options were weekly, monthly, or yearly. Why don't they have an hourly option?
How often, on average, do you visit Flyertalk.com, if ever?

really, not even a "Daily" option?
Is there any site that one reads with any regularity, that is much less than daily? If something is much less than daily, it generally falls off my radar completely. Maybe I'm just too connected.

Yeah, I was wondering much the same thing, and trying to figure out if there's a website I regularly visit that don't visit daily. Numerous forums, news websites, e-mail web interfaces, CC website, fantasy sports, etc. - all daily. I think the only significant exception might be retailers, or maybe online billpay once or twice a month.

If I am at work, I check in to FT at least hourly, if not more often.
Evenings, weekends, or when on holiday.....daily or weekly!

I subscribe to the rss. I check it about every hour or so, sometimes less. I also have it booked marked on my Opera Mini on my AT&T Tilt.

Don't remember what I answered but remember thinking "hmm, I wonder why they want to know. I have a feeling frequent visits to flyertalk might not be appreciated"

The quesiton would be: what to lie about! I'm not sure what part of my responses rendered me undesirable

I received it today as well and cracked up about the FT question. I didn't get disinvited in the end, but this is the second time they have asked me to potentially join. I never heard back from them the last time.
