No http://thecutest.info/ ?

For me, it's either this place, slashdot, or any of the webcomics I read that I'm looking at.

Most of what little internet time I have anymore is spent either here or at CN or on my alliance's board for that game. I also check LJ and Facebook, various webcomics, and a handfull of other sites when I have the time.

I'll admit, I'm addicted to Facebook, and I even check my Myspace fairly regularly, and Livejournal to read other people's posts but never to post myself anymore.

In terms of websites, I've become addicted to Amateurgourmet.com, which is owned by a guy who moved to NY awhile ago and is documenting his adventures through the food he eats. I also read Slate Magazine.com, Postsecret.com, found.com, newstoday.com, and asofterworld.com (the only webcomic I read consistantly, if you can call it that) pretty much daily.

Reference and as needed-wise, it seems that I turn to Wikipedia, merriam-webster.com, uTube, allrecipes.com, and IMDB almost daily for one reason or another.

I've been getting into Librarything.com a lot since someone posted a link to it a few days ago also.

MySpace is my biggest addiction
Gmail and Hotmail, if those count.
IMDB is like my lifeline..
Production Hub to find PA type jobs in the area.
And Pinkisthenewblog.com for celebrity news, with the occasional visit to perezhilton.com

I'm a webcomic junkie. I must have about 30 or so in my bookmarks. I have a problem :(

Seriously, though, I'd recommend Dominic Deegan, Devil's Panties, Narbonic, and Penny Arcade. If you have'nt heard of these, go find them. They rock. I'll post some links if anyone so requests.

Check dailyish: Hatrack, Newsies Freak, MuggleNet, Squeetus, Pweb, Gmail, my Google homepage, and Hotmail.

Use almost daily: Google, IMDb, Wikipedia, and dictionary.com.

When I get bored, I read Ctrl+Alt+Del, browse Amazon and ThinkGeek, and waste a lot of time on Addicting Games.
I used to hate gravity because it would not let me fly. Now I realize it is gravity that lets me stand.

I have a picture posted on thinkgeek, one of the action shots uder the "I heart my geek" male shirts. The title is "no, we're not related". Ok, so my boyfriend and I look a little bit alike.
Step one, take off your shirt. Step two ... Step three, PROFIT!

Daily Motion - It's like YouTube, but with more full episodes of stuff!
Television Without Pity
Neil Gaiman's Blog
One Duck to rule them all.
