And no, Matt, this post is not intended for you to post the Hasselhoff Recursion. Please do not do this. It scares
Now that this matter of business is taken care of… does anyone ever feel like they are surfing a very small endless loop of the same websites?
For me it’s: Slashdot, BoingBoing, Penny Arcade, woot.com, CNN.com, GMail, and my personal webmail account off my homepage.
Very rarely do I ever venture very far outside this circle. The noted omission from this list is the Replica Prop Forum, which I have made a concerted effort to avoid as it tends to make money fly out of my wallet at an unbelievable pace.
I always welcome a good diversion from my normal neighborhood of sites. If you’ve got something interesting that I don’t know about (preferably worksafe), slap it into a comment so I can check it out. I need some variety in my life.

No, Wiki.?
Personally, I’ve been relying on that to keep my brain active.
Yes. Day in – Day out. I just stick to the same ones. It’s hard to trust “unknown” places — if you catch my drift.
Dude, try slickdeals.net
I find I have a bunch of webcomics and weblogs I check first thing in the morning, but I rotate through Slashdot, BoingBoing, Fark.com, and Digg. Sometimes Metafilter. And of course, the blogs and my personal email.
If I’m really bored I run through three or four of them continuously, praying that something fun shows up.
Very interesting thread because I just saw this article in WebUser (a UK Inet online mag) that I browsed via one of my eight main sites: My Yahoo!, BoingBoing, Slashdot, Flickr, LJ, WilWheaton, Woot, and Reddit. We are not alone…
I am much more juvenile in that much of my time is spent surfing around the homestarrunner.com site…
I bounce through various blogs, Flickr, Off the Mark comics, Apple Trailers, and Real Life comics (which I’ve blogged about before cause it reminded me of you – though it’s apparently having issues today for some reason).
I also check fark.com every day. It’s actually entertaining, I check it quite often to make sure I don’t miss anything. Also don’t forget about neopets! I play on it everyday!
