When do I cut my losses?

Hello everyone,
I'm new to online dating - - started about a week ago - - and would appreciate some advice from those with more experience than me...is it unusual to NOT get a message for a couple of days from a guy you've started exchanging messages with? (That's the situation I'm in now). So I am wondering if I should go ahead and write this guy off as no longer interested or give it some more time. (You know how you can see when someone's last been online? Well, this guy hasn't been since he and I last swapped messages...don't know if I should read anything into that or not.)
I don't want to be in a position where it's like I'm waiting on someone to get back to me - - if I have a time frame to work from, I'll know when I should cut my losses.
And is it cool to be emailing more than one guy at a time? My gut says I should do that, until or unless something gets serious, but I'm new to this and just want to start off on the right foot so that my online experience is a fun one!

Dont spend too much time thinking about it. Just email/chat for an hour or less a day and see where it goes
Good luck
I find the best way to handle this is to assume every time you hear from a guy will be the last time ;-). Don't wait, just keep going with emailing and dating others. If you hear from him again, great; if not, oh well!
And yes, you definitely should be emailing more than one person at a time ;-)!
