aibu to ask what else you do on the Internet?

[MrsSippy]

I seem to be stuck in a loop of MN, ebay and Facebook, and now I'm bored. I've tried Twitter but I just don't get it! Where else do you go?

I play WoW too much

One other board, a couple of professional journals. Not every night. Netmums once a fortnight.

Oh I don't get Twitter at all. Joined recently, did two twits, and then retired as no one was listening.

I do here, netmums, Facebook, would like some more suggestions too.

Longform
Slate, more than I should
Iplayer for radio programmes - makes the laptop the world's most expensive radio, but I never know when radio stuff is on.

doggus you 'did two twits' and then retired?

Same as you plus Student Nurse chat and SMNet, which is for Student MW and they have a section for nurses. A bit of iplayer lately, as my sky box upstairs has broken!!

Oh plus obsessively checking online banking in the ain hope I will suddenly be better off than I really am!

vain hope**

Twitter, Facebook, MN, Pinterest, blogging, web design, read blogs, web comics, news sites, follow design tutorials, iplayer, 4OD, Netflix.... um, just a few things

I have all kinds of newspapers to read -from local rags to international issues.

I keep a close eye on MSE
stumble upon
boing boing and several other forums to do with my hobbies .

If they all bore me I move on to watch TV programmes on Iplayer and similar for other channels and if that palls I run through youtube -often just browsing.

And if all that still bores me I have many many books on the laptop so I can read something.

I don't get pinterest, I joined but it spams my FB, that's all. I do look at tutorials on cake decorating on You Tube too, forgot that!

You could try

www.justchat.co.uk

Can be hilarious and most people are ok in forum 3.

I haven.t been on for months as I cannot access it from my phone.

It isn't for the faint of heart though.

Plan bike ride and walks
Fb
read magazines
look for gigs
read reviews for gigs and films

Fb, drool over nail polish blogs, read news sites, read feminist blogs like Jezebel and feministing, Look at reviews for things I want to buy, watch tv and films, look up silly questions and sometimes masochistically read the dm website to make myself angry but that needs to stop it's unhealthy!

Digital spy
Mse
Facebook
Mumsnet

Thats it really

Worra - story of my life!

What's on digitalspy - isn't that just to talk about telly?

I shall trot off to examine MSE

Shop ;)

Facebook, blog, Pinterest, read the news, stream American TV shows watch iPlayer.

Reddit. You go for a quick look and suddenly it's 3am.

bit like MN!

Pinterest for recipes I am unlikely to ever make

Notalwaysright.com for funny stories of stoopid customers.
notalwaysworking.com for funny stories of stoopid workers!

Facebook - I play Hidden Chronicles, which is addictive interesting and fun but you need other friends to play with.

IMDB - I like to read trivia about films I have seen, and goofs for films I might watch so I can look out for them.

argh too much and looks like they are mostly expensive habits

news, my own site/chat board, FB (when account is active), buy books and things from Amazon, buy music and things from iTunes/the App store, enrol on courses (latest: fencing and Italian, let's gloss over the abandoned MA) then roam around looking at things relevant to those - like YouTube for fencing videos and Yabla for helpful Italian language things, oh and rai tv for same purpose, plan and book flights, accommodation for trips I can't really afford, skype for talking to people not on my phone favourites plan (and one or two who are), email obviously, bodybuilding.com (forums, articles), looking at pictures of volcanic eruptions (why?)
