Like most of you, I am constantly wasting my time on the internet. Procrastinating, entertaining myself, debating topics or keeping up with friends, there are quite a few websites I visit regularly.

So, what are the best websites and which ones do you visit the most?

I spend all of my time here, 1UP's boards, IGN's boards, Facebook or TVTropes. I'm probably at Google or Wikipedia the most, but they're just short visits, even if there are a lot of them.

Here, wikipedia, or facebook, from the poll.

I also visit www.lala.com frequently.

Mostly here and Generalite mafia. If those are both slow, I will go on Facebook, but rarely.

Wikipedia, Facebook, YouTube (for background music), Google, and, of course, NationStates General.

As for those not on the list: www.freetetris.org and www.riotfolk.org.

Most often? Google, by faaaaar.
After that, from the ones you mentioned: wikipedia, nationstates, youtube. None of the others in the poll.

Most often, you'll catch me checking my e-mail (I have 3 different addresses, so it takes a few minutes). Otherwise, I'm either here, on Xanga, on Facebook, or actually doing homework. If I'm in the mood for some current events, I hit CNN, FOX, MSNBC, the local paper's website, Slate Magazine, and digg.com (yes, all of them, I like a balanced perspective).

If anyone's looking for a website with quite accurate forecasts -- at least for the Upper Midwest -- I highly recommend www.wunderground.com.

I will post one of my frequently used websites. I travel all the time and this site has become very handy for me. I suggested this in another thread for a poster. http://www.bootsnall.com/

In descending order of frequency: wikipedia, email (i.e. gmail, yahoo), online games (i.e. nationstates, lunar wars), other sites. I also use google to search for stuff, but not very commonly.

Combine them, and eventually somebody starts telling you the truth. Got any other sites I should visit?

You have Facebook? If you'd like, you can add me. TG me for the link.

*is confuzzled*Maybe that's an exaggeration but there's a lot of popular websites I don't like. I know a lot of people who use deviantart, but I can't get into it.

Man, FaceBook is shitting all over MySpace.



Can't say I didn't expect it.




Bebo is for the chavs.


MySpace is for the emos.


FaceBook is for everyone who's realised that those classifications just don't mean anything.
