I'm signed in to yahoo messenger quite a bit, it helps me to keep in touch with my family and friends who are scatterd all over the world.

I spend alot of my free time flipping through fotki members photos, alot of very talented people here on fotki!!

I homeschool my 3 sons and have found www.askjeeves.com to be an excellent educational search engine! The best I have found!

Sites I visit daily are www.weatherchannel.com, msnbc.com, yahoogames.com, and of course fotki.

My children enjoy www.cartoonnetwork.com and www.nickjr.com

i spend a lot of time on livejournal in the ohnotheydidnt community. (it's about celebrity gossip)

this is a cool photo site with tons of talented photographers, it's an online magazine that i believe comes out monthly.

and of course i spend a lot of time here on fotki browsing albums.

Lately I've been having fun with Google Earth and

I use Googles search engine too but I couldn't say that I have a specific site I keep spending my time. Most of my time and nerves belongs to fotki of course, but I spend a bit of time in medicinal and herbal sites.

Hey Merc:
1. I'm on CNN.com everyday just to check out the latest news

2. I'm checking in on Fotki each day to see who's visited my site and see what my friends are up to...

3. Weather.com to see what's coming by putting in the zip code of our local city. I don't believe our TV weathermen anymore.

4. Flickr.com to check on your latest pics there and getting ready to start some albums of my own.

5. Google to check out lots of info as needed when at work and bored with what I'm supposed to be doing.

6. Trafalgartours.com to check out where is the next place to go on a vacation.

7. Almost forgot, Overstock.com for buying things at great prices..

So you see, while at the office or at home, I'm able to keep up with the current events, fotki news and travel info.
Thanks for asking!!! ;D

Hehee you really liked their design there didn't you? I thought it was pretty groovy myself when I saw it.
Let's see.. my main one's are msn and yahoo to catch up on the news and e-mails. Fotki, of course, and couple other cool photosites (like Webshots & Photosig). E-bay once a week or so...
I'm not even going to start listing all my shopping sites I visit online :))
Google for searching all kinds of interesting things :)
Those are pretty much the tops...

I guess everyone that has been on the internet for
a while settles in to a comfort zone of sites they go
to on a regular basis. I was curious where everyone
spends their time.
here are mine:


1 Dpreview, I visit here several times a week but pretty much only visit the sony forum and read the reviews here. excellent site and people.
