What do you DO online?

[Rob Sellen]

Apart from facebook, here, etc, what else do you look at online?
Do you have own sites?
Blogs?
Do you look at forums?

How do you spend time online? :o)

I use to maintain a site but Facebook and Picassa made hosting pictures so much easier so I stopped. Now, keep up with friends and news with FB and Twitter. There's a handful of sites and forums that I check every day and I do 90% of my shopping online these days too, as well as banking, bill paying, etc.

For the most part, however, it's just a distraction.

I do research on the mysterious parts of portland, I love the ww2 battery placements and I am also very keen to get in touch with the owners of the old dog training and airial aray at the rear of the verne, opposite the high angle battery. I think it is commonly known as the Rotor. Can any one help??

Regards

Friend networking mostly..

I have a lot of friends from sites like www.feesch.co.uk (was origionally the uk user group for ICQ) www.wayn.com and of course facebook. Tinkering with twitter, just .

Feesch is a good site & has regular UK meets where I've met & made loads of friends.

I'm a biker, I goto club meets & runs, and like to go to a few rallys every year. I love music & often at gigs mainly around Poole & Bournemouth. Loads of CD's and downloading of MP3's & podcasts. Use the net a lot to keep in touch with mates & gigs & bikers ..etc

I'm also into geocaching (treasure hunting using GPS). (anything involving a gadget & I'm hooked).

And currently trying to ride the reccession looking for a job.

Favorite site has to be Wikepedia. which has to be an amazing resource and concept. Knowlwdge is ao valuable! Even if it can sometimes have flaws :) I love the way wikepedia is peer maintained and so contemporary.

FB, here, Twitter, Freecycle, Dorset Echo, Geoff Kirby's site, Met office, parenting forum, cavy forum, cat forum er... I search the web for recipes, things to make and do with the kids, shopping, NHS direct. Play games occasionally, book holidays.
Anything, everything, stuff.
I don't own a site or have a blog.
