Favourite non magic website..

Postby thebigcheese » Oct 24th, '08, 16:47



Hi, been a while since I last posted, busy with work etc ( I wont bore you all!!)..So I thought Id post something simple for my return.

What website do you always have to check when you jump on the internet (emails excluded and google!) and for what reason??

Aside from Sky News I always have to check out

www.maddox.xmission.com

..It always cracks me up..Bit of weird sense of humour I know, but funny all the same.

Hope everyone is well!

Dave

Nothing too exciting for me, I'm afraid. My homepage is the BBC News page, so I can catch up on current events when I come online. I'm also strangely drawn to Facebook at the moment, which is worrying.

I am a complete and utter geek. I check websites in the following order whenever I am on t'internet:
BT email
Hotmail
Bebo
MySpace
Facebook
TalkMagic
Magic Bunny

Always! I even have a toolbar on IE with buttons to them all, to make my life easier.


Yeah, as if I have a life... :P

Gotta be http://couchtripper.com

I love that place - it's like one of those multi-media news/entertainment/community sites but with a much more homely and non-corporate feel.

That's my plug for the day ;)

My home page is MacRumors... Then I tend to go to Facebook. Following that, I head to Wired. I always have Pandora open. Somewhere along the way I remember TM and come on here. ;-)
