Change my digital habits

I seem to be in a digital rut when it comes to procrastination, constantly looking at the same few websites. I tend to look at STW, BBC, a couple of newspaper sites that don’t hide behind a paywall and facebook. Plus online shops where I daydream about things I can’t afford.

Recommend me some informative entertaining safe for work websites.

Rolling Stone if you’re interested in music documentary

Flipboard can wittle into your browsing time quite effectively 🙂

Do some work!

Great start. Thanks.

Cynic-al – not now it’s the evening. Just thinking ahead that’s all. If you repeat at about 0930 tomorrow it maybe justified…

Always worth an occasional visit.

It is indeed Jamie – But I need to vary my addictions incase work ever block any of them.

TV Tropes is a site that always ends up sending me off in a Wikipedia-a-like rabbit warren.

That makes more sense. I knew there was more to online time wasting than I have managed in the past.

Or if your into going wow cool, I wish I could do that!!! check out Daniel Simon…. His artwork rocks, especially before he was involved in the movie industry in a big way. His coffee table book is a bit of a collectors item 🙂

Hopefully “cosmic motors” will be turned into a film soon…. Check out the “trailer”!

Reddit – the visually abhorrent reflection of the internet.

Product by Process[/url] is great if you like seeing how stuff gets made. Though it doesn’t seem to have much new content of late.

StumbleUpon is pretty good for coming up with lots of random stuff. You can program it to find what interests you.
