Other sites you visit daily, other than DU
My routine - Check my site, update, blog - Check Buzzflash - Click DU, go to GD, then Lounge, periodic commentary posts in GD. Ceck Huffington Post -
Back to my home site - repeat cycle.

Pathetically predictable.

6. Usually goes something like this:
Edited on Sun Apr-09-06 06:50 PM by WritingIsMyReligion
Webmail Account

DU:
Read home page articles---usually only Top 10, though :D
Check in at Lounge
Pop by Religion/Theology
Brave GD if I'm feeling extra kooky--Usually just reading, though
Browse other random forums--Atheist/Agnostic, Musicians' Group, Writing Group, etc.

Other random websites:
(Which include...)
School webpage
Amazon.com
Random Google searches
Websites of fav. authors/musicians

Lather. Rinse. Repeat.

9. Well there is
Fark.com
A selection of web comics (Such as misfiles, The Wotch, Sinfest and PVPonline (GIANT PANDA!) and such.)

A selection of wrestling sites since I'm a wrestling fan (The Wrestling Observer, Wrestlecrap etc.)

CNN and MSNBC and Dailykos

Sluggy.net for my email . . .

stripcreator.com if I feel like creating a comic strip (not as often as I use to)

that's just a small sampling. I really visit too many websites for my own good.

17. Quite a few
Edited on Mon Apr-10-06 11:20 AM by mvd
www.yahoo.com
www.google.com
www.broadbandreports.com
www.buzzflash.com
www.philly.com
www.dailykos.com
www.crooksandliars.com
www.metacritic.com (I almost never follow music reviews - and with full album listening parties, samples from iTunes, and artist websites, they are becoming even less relevant. I still look at reviews on Metacritic for entertainment, but have sworn off certain sites - Stylus Magazine (just contrarian for contrarian's sake - just as smug as Pitchfork but in a different way,) and Slant Magazine (just because their reviews are either biased or consistently poorly written.) I don't often agree with Pitchfork, but they do tell people about new stuff. If I had a newspaper, I would drop regular reviews and just have an favorite album of the week or featured CD column. I still rate CDs in my personal time; probably would not become a professional critic.)

24. In this order:
gmx.de (e-mail), Drudge (morbid curiousity), Washington Post, LA Times, DU several times for the rest of the day from this point on, and one last stop at gmx.de before shutting down. On days off, Yahoo Cribbage and Yahoo Euchre might get visited, and I do poke around eBay on weekends.
