How Much Web-Surfing Does A Man Require?

My current answer:

2-4 quick peeks, 1-2 slow porings.

in terms of time (maybe):

quick peek #1: pre-dawn / morning

quick peek #2: late morning / day

slow poring #1 / quick peek #3: pre-dusk / evening

slow poring #2 / quick peek #4: late evening / night

in terms of function (maybe):

quick peek #1: after waking up

quick peek #2: after doing something

slow poring #1 / quick peek #3: after doing more things

slow poring #2 / quick peek #4: after doing all the things

One reason why "all the things" became a meme, maybe, is that it does supply some missing lack to the language: "do all the things" sounds a bit different, and a bit better, than "do everything".
