Daily Web Rituals

[Version3]

Other than Jerry, for the most part the core folks visit the site most every day… but what other sites do you visit daily? What are the ‘go-to’ sites when the daily visits have less to offer?

I’ll go first (my list is actually pretty short)

• MacRumors followed immediately by
• AppleInsider
• Woot is my next stop of the day, but I have a tendency to click it several times a day just because it’s ‘next’ when I’m on the above.
• tSOS of course
• Smashing Magazine
• Craigslist where I almost always have some specific car search bookmarked (currently it’s a Miata)
• Video CoPilot, though I don’t visit it every day
• MotionWorks (not every day either)

Once I’m home for the day, I’ll add
• WWTDD

Less frequently, though certainly up there I’ll include
• JoBlo
• AdSense and Google Analytics for my various sites
• then some days I’ll finish out the day with xnxx (not work safe boys) to get some ideas for what I’m going to try to talk the wife into. -it never works.

I generally checkout here and YouTube, and Massively, which is a MMORPG news website.

[Larkitect]

this is a great idea for a thread.

search
•bing (i decided to use it exclusively for a week when it came out and i like it better than google now. i love the way it handles pic and video searches.)

daily
•switchedON (i love sharing my twisted sense of humor and my love of star wars.)
•digg (user submitted stories/pics)
•zerosec (gotta check new movie/tv leaks/rips)
•katz (never know what you might find. movie leaks/rips)
•youMail (i love this one. used it for years. free web-based voicemail for your cell phone. never had a problem with it.)

≤weekly
•fark (news aggregator. very entertaining.)
•fazed (news aggregator. very entertaining.)
•deviantArt (when i need a new wallpaper.)
•xbox 360 forums (when i get a new game. gamertag = Larkitect)
•revision3 (all kinds of interesting weekly shows.)
•youtube (so my life doesn’t seem so bad.)
•joblo (gotta keep up with legal movie/tv releases)
•speed test (gotta check it when i feel like my throughput had been reduced to dial-up.)
•sick and wrong (don’t go to the forum much but never miss one of their weekly shows. got into them after switchedON ended when i was desperate for some content. its twisted and its hilarious. can’t imagine a fan of switchedON not enjoying sick and wrong.)
•listal (my dvds and blu-rays are at a point where i need some kind of list.)

I agree…great idea. With mine you’ll…uh, notice a pattern…

DVDFile – The first DVD website I started visiting. They gave me a DVD not too long ago. Almost worked for them — fell through when the guy that ran it left to run another one…
The Digital Bits – Great website — pretty simple, but really has their news down. I’ve been in touch with them since I started with DVD, and they’re really great guys.
Ain’t It Cool News – Who doesn’t know about this one? Lots hate Harry, but sometimes he gets the news first.
Joblo.com – Started visiting Joblo about 5 years ago — they’re pretty on top of the news, too, even beating Harry sometimes.
Mac News Network – I like this website over some of the others simply because it’s less cluttered with crap that I don’t care about…
Electronista – This one’s run by the MacNN guys, and I really like it. It’s more of a general gizmo sort of website, not unlike GizModo.
The NIN Hotline – One of the best NIN news sites out there. Run by a fan that’s really one of the pioneers of the NIN fan internet community.
High Def Digest – What do you know? Another home video site! This one was started by the guy that started DVDFile — makes a bit more sense since it’s, you know, Blu-Ray now.

Those are my daily sites. My every-now-and-then sites are nin.com, rogerebert.com, MuggleNet.com, MacRumors.com…so yeah. And then of course, SOS many times a day.

[digitaltopia]

While we’re adding news sites I should add I also visit justlinux.com every day for all the daily Linux news.

[Bucho]

SOS and three or four other podcast boards.
CHUD for movie news and reviews and boards.

Every few days I’ll check up on Apple movies for trailers and Rotten Tomatoes for links to movie reviews. I also get into Youtube and Wikipedia where I’ll end up spending shitloads of time on them once a week or so getting stuck in loops. Fuck You Penguin is pretty good for a laugh, the only blog I pay much attention to. I also look up Penny Arcade and Something Awful sometimes.

okay so that last one is magical and only I can see it…

Bryan’s list was so intellectual and my list sounds like something from a 10 year old. That’s why I left off http://www.xhamster.com

[Larkitect]

you can’t drop the gauntlet of xhamster and not mention cliphunter.

someone should buy that last one though and make a tribute page to rob. i don’t want to do it, but someone should. because talking about it just sucks the comedy out of a url that is funny enough by itself.

look, boobies!

Thanks for this one, my wife is has already found entirely too much entertainment there. There are some funny ones.

My home page is a custom iGoogle page with a bunch of RSS feeds to various news sites.

Every couple days I’ll hit up my comics tab for some entertainment

Of course I’ll hit sites like woot, digg, fark when I think of it.

Yes I do but its been AGES since I last updated. I am honestly thinking of killing that page and starting a new one or in the least going and revamping it with allot of deletions and adding some of my better work and starting a web site once I get done with that fucking coding class…..Yay java HTML CSS and such

Where is the reference photos for that late Beetle? There are some obvious custom changes for taste, but the gas tank door is on the wrong side. I don’t know that they were put on that side in any market. I suppose it could be on that side for a RHD in some conditions, but I’ve not seen it.

[Masturbates with poo]

Hmm were is this bug you speak of? Maybe I am as blind as a horse running in a bucket of puss and guts but I did not see a post pertaining to it.
