Let us know what your favorite website is besides Gather.  I hear about so many websites and there is so much out there to learn.

For instance, I learned yesterday about a family in Turkey that are supposed to be the missing link.  They walk on all fours.  They are a cross between a human and a monkey.  One guy remarked that it's a hoax because what monkey wears clothes.  The website is http://www.dailymail.co.uk

And this is a fun place (that you may already know about) called Swapbot where you can swap things with others -- I like fun mail what can I say :-)

I am a fan of Dictionary.com. There are all sorts of interesting, bizarre things there. Also word games, etc.
I love going to www.sugarthecat.com

This couple have 4 cats and write a weekly comic strip with photos of the cats. Start reading from the first ones in the archive and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!

Got to agree with Suze: pogo.com Lots of points, little money. Actually you can win money but I am not lucky. Unless you count the $5 I won about 3 years ago.

Cool sites!!! Thanks Carol for the great article :)
Chris Carlisle Nov 6, 2007, 4:52pm EST
The sites that get me through the workday are Fark, Cracked, The Presurfer, and I Can Has Cheezburger?

Oh, and my own site, obviously.
Chris Carlisle Nov 6, 2007, 4:54pm EST
My wife and daughters are big into Webkinz. Some of the games are fun, but it requires purchase of a stuffed animal to participate on the site.
Chris Carlisle Nov 6, 2007, 4:58pm EST
Last one I promise: Lileks.com. That's the site that made me jump on board the internet bandwagon way back in the 90s.

And he has a new book coming out later this month, if anyone wants to buy me a present with their Borders gift card.

This one's www.howmanyofme.com-sorry, don't know how to link. You can punch in your name, last name, and combined name to see how many people have your first, last and combined name. Mine came up 1-I assure you, you guys are lucky they broke that mold!

The people on Gather that like SEX like REDCLOUDS - I think Redclouds has a membership fee of something small like $15 or $20 but it has a sister site that is called VOYEURWEB.

If you are into nudity or wonder about people that are - this is all about folks like Gather members - no pros here - just folks like you. Well, maybe not YOU.

These are great. I'm going to play.

When I am not on Gather I like to spend my time on MyLot, because they actually PAY Canadians for doing pretty much what we do here on Gather.
