It seems like you can't turn turn around without coming across a wide variety of websites on any number of assorted topics. Some are educational, some entertaining, and some just plan engrossing. I can't tell you the amount of time I've spent between the following sites:
- www.goodreads.com -- social media relating to books
- www.bookmooch.com -- social media to exchange books
- www.facebook.com -- social media
- www.twitter.com -- social media
- www.chicagotribune.com -- my local newspaper
- www.indeed.com -- a great job search tool
- www.caringbridge.com -- connecting the ill with their friends and families
- Assorted other sites such as those for my bank, my gym, and the site for an organization I volunteer with among others
I'm also starting to explore the following sites that I haven't quite gotten hooked on yet that intrigue me:
- www.zaarly.com -- social media
- www.foursquare.com -- social media
While I think we've come such a long way with these advances in technology, on the flip side, I sometimes think that we're way too tied into our computer devices. There are times when I wish we could do some of what we do without being so attached to a computer however I realize that much of what we do via these sites wasn't available prior to their on-line creation.
And yes, I do realize the irony of writing this on yet another website via this blog!
