My Favorite Places To Waste Time on the Internet

Let me share with you some of my favorite places to waste time online.  This is when I'm not trying to earn a little extra money.

First of all, I've really started to enjoy playing some of the games at www.king.com  They have lots of interesting games.  When you play you earn jewels to unlock new things for your avatar and new features within their website.  You don't have to pay money to be a part of this but if you don't it means ads and queues when the site is busy.  If you pay money you can supposedly earn money, but I haven't tried it.

The craze that seems to be sweeping the internet lately is the lolcats website.  www.icanhazcheezburger.com  These are pictures of cats and some other animals with great captions that make the pictures hillarious!  I love going every so often to look and see what new ones people have come up with!

I do the pointsandprizes.com so I spend time searching for words on sheknows and other sites. It takes a while but sometimes they get really good prizes.

thanks for commenting on my Hurricane/Tropical Storm Dolly article, have a beautiful day!

I spend most of the time here on the gather and then BT

The lolcats site is pretty funny, though I haven't been on there in months and months. It's so easy to get lost in the internet.
Kimber L. Jul 24, 2008, 12:17pm EDT
Cool thanks for the heads up!

I'm pretty boring - if I'm just wasting time I go to zone.msn.com and play games.

It sounds interesting, but I'm not really into games very much I guess I'm too dumb to figure them out.. have a good ay every body.

I'm not too much into games, either. But I have found that I can keep up with all the local gossip on Topix.

When I'm not on Gather or BT, I am usually on my family website. Other times I'm on expedia.com or trafalgertours.com planning trips to exotic places that I would never be able to afford. Hey, a girl can dream can't she.

I like to do the psychic tests at the Boundary Institute's "Got Psi?" site...

Thank You

Between Gather and BT, and all the surveys and My points, I don't have time for much else. I do surf around and have occasionally hit upon a good site.
Fern Cohen Jul 24, 2008, 9:26pm EDT
how about boomertime games and candystand.com games!

I already waste too much time on the Internet (or so my hubby says - lol!), but sometimes I go to various sites and play games. I avoid any sites that you have to pay money for, however.
donna h. Jul 25, 2008, 2:09pm EDT
BT & Gather

Gather, Wellness 360 and I check out Myspace daily to see if family or friends have left me messages.

I like gather, myspace, checking my email, ancestry.com, tmz, imdb, etc... lol
tammy b. Aug 3, 2008, 4:42pm EDT
Thanks, some fun comes in finding these sites when surfing but who has time for that.
