GameDaily has a tasty little quote here from Peter Dille, Sony's VP of Marketing that has had some of the Destructoid staffers atwitter over this. Well, we're all laughing and wondering just what the hell people could be doing in Home for nearly an hour.

So, before we get into it, here's Mr. Dille's words:

We've got 4 million users in PlayStation Home worldwide, and the average session in Home is about 55 minutes. And I challenge you to compare that to the amount of time people spend on websites where you're in and out very quickly. To have someone spend 55 minutes, that's more time than they spend watching and hour-long TV show where there's 21 minutes of commercials. It's a very sticky environment and it's very engaging.

Wow, that's impressive, Sony! 4 million users and 55 minutes each! Except, that's not what you really mean. The four million users would include those who have gone ahead and tried out Home once, spending plenty of time trying to work the god-awful avatar creation system, and then attempt to jump off the balcony of their apartment, only to fail, and ultimately end up in a dance party at the central plaza.

Those 55 minutes are actually spent regularly by a much smaller user base, probably on the order of 400,000 users, if I had to throw out a number. And that's being generous. So, the rest of the staff was discussing what you could do with those 55 minutes instead of hanging around in Home.

1. Make a sandwich

Our robot-in-chief, Niero, admits to hanging around in Home for protracted periods of time. But, he's not interacting with anyone. Instead, he's forgotten about it, and just wandered off to the kitchen to make himself a sandwich. So, take a note from our boss and give yourself something nutritious to eat. It'll be a hell of a lot better than the pocky you've been munching on. I suggest roast beef, lettuce, and ranch dressing on some toasted wheat bread.

2. Update your firmware 

Our resident tipster Joe Burling wants to keep you using your PlayStation 3, and so he suggests taking your time to go ahead and update the firmware. At least for me, I've constantly dealt with random download speeds, making the firmware updates take an entire hour before, from download to installation. Think of it this way: you'll save yourself some time before you've got to update the firmware again next week!

3. Do your homework

Many of you are still in college, and some of you are even in high school, so you may as well get some of those assignments out of the way. It'll leave you more time to do productive things, like actually interact with other people, or maybe even go to bed at a reasonable hour. Hopefully I'm not suggesting anything too scandalous.

4. Rearrange your spice rack

Retro man Dyson proffers this option, and it's a rather good one to take up. Going through and rearranging your spice rack helps you remember just which spice you have. If you can't remember, it means you've been neglecting them, and not cooking all that much, and that's just a shame. Spend some time and make something interesting for dinner: I suggest pork chops with an orange sauce over them. It's simply divine.

5. Take a nap

If you're playing in the middle of the day, and are feeling horribly lethargic, a nice little nap allow you relax and rejuvenate yourself. Once you wake up, you'll be ready to face the rest of the day. Aim for 45 minutes, because otherwise you'll become lethargic.

6. Learn Spanish

If you're sitting and playing with Home every single day, why not put that sort of regularity into something a bit more helpful to you in life. Spanish is incredibly easy to learn, at least compared to Japanese or Chinese. With any luck, you could easily pick up the language in several months.

7. Watch some TV

There's plenty of programming that you can find to watch. Perhaps watch an episode of the BBC comedy Beautiful People while you're making a sandwich. Or maybe sit back, relax, and pop some vicodin while watching House. It'll be a pleasant experience, I assure you.

8. Bake some brownies

They're delicious and all your friends will appreciate it. Brownies are fairly easy to make, and in just a couple of tries you can perfect the recipe. Once you've succeeded at that, you can move on to other items like pancakes or muffins.

9. Go read Tomopop and Japanator

Shameless plug. Shameless plug. Shameless plug. Shameless plug.

10. Play some videogames

Samit suggests that you actually sit down and play some videogames. Who the hell does that?

What would you do with those 55 minutes?
