What do you do online? (when you're not blogging, of course)

Just wondering what grabs your attention online.

I build websites so I frequent some developer sites, take paid surveys, and feed my Facebook addiction when I'm bored.

lately i've been catching up on olympic news. otherwise, shopping/browsing for any current addictions (i.e. snowboarding stuff, which is unfortunate because it's AUGUST), and feeding my never-ending quest for knowledge, aka wiki-ing shit.

facebook, random web surfing, sleeping, eating, oh and of course partying, dodging pictures, and telling people to go see my blog & agree on my last post [shrugs], oh tv, movies, internet movies, avoiding the gym.

Ah, duh. I surf porn! Doesn't everyone?

I'm kidding. Actually I'm a tech news junkie, so I surf sites like Digg, Engadget, etc. And when I'm not doing that online, I'm downloading MP3s like a mad man.

Yeah there are lots of fakes out there. My rule of thumb is that any survey site asking you to pay them anything is fake. The way I see it, you're already giving them your opinion that should be enough. The real ones get their money from the companies who want surveys done. Try one from the article I linked to above. All of them are free to join.

I like taking a gander at what other web developers are working on. Eg., the cobra language, MVC's, whatever social [thingies] people have come up with lately, etc.

Also, as I am a musician, www.soundsnap.com is really fun to hit up.

Other than blogging and reading about a trillion other blogs I check out facebook (mostly peoples photos), read the news, watch video clips... 20sb obviously. Ever since I started reading blogs I haven't really had any time to just "surf."
