Hello my fellow forum members!
This time I'd like to step aside from starcraft related stuff a bit, since there wasn't any particular useful information in my last thread. Now I would like to talk about your web browser. Well, not your browser actually, more like how are you using it. So tell me, what are your favourite websites? What tabs are always open when you launch you precious little chrome/firefox/opera/ie/safari/whatever else you might be using? Do you use google reader? Are you a fan of RSS feeds? Are there any special youtube authors you would recommend to someone? What makes you happy online? Maybe you adore some cute webcomics?
Come one and share your Internet knowledge, who knows maybe we can all find something new and interesting here!
As fore me, here's what I've come up with (random order):
1)somethingawful.com
Warning, may be unsuitable for people under 18 years old!
2)Penny Arcade
I am sure many of you knew about this one already, but still it's worth mentioning.
3)SMBC-comics
While Penny Arcade usually revolves around gaming and games related stuff SMBC uses geek and nerdy jokes while sprinkling some tasty dose of science and philosophy. Quite enjoyable.
4)TL
Pretty self-explanatory.
5)Wallbase.cc
Suits my wallpaper needs, maybe it'll help you too!
6)Project Gutenberg
Ever feel like you need something interesting to read? Check this out!
7)TED
Smart people discuss smart stuff. That's quite a rude and uneducated description, but go to this site and watch some videos to balance it out.
8)Hackertyper
Need to impress someone who's not really "good with computers"? Here is a thing for you.
9)Finally, some Youtube stuff I enjoy:
AgentXPQ - "Tales Of Mere Existence- Videos about what you've been trying to hide."
Husky! - you probably know this guy, no need to describe more.
LifesAGlitchTV - Ever heard of "When Cheese Fails" series? No? Go there, seriously.
smbctheater - Here you go, funny videos from SMBC crew.
juz70 - Quite a small channel where an australian guy is flying his quadrocopter with FPV system.
Well, that's it for me. I didn't include any russian sites I check for obvious reasons. Now it's your turn TL community, show me what you got!
