As my mother will tell you: I spend way too much time on the computer. It may seem pointless, but I do get some things done. I look up things to research, music to listen to, and terms that I may need.
www.Deviantart.com- it may sound rather "deviant" as the title may suggest, but it was created as a free posting website for aspiring artists to get their art out onto the web and hopefully get discovered. But nowadays the site is used for submissions that connect people thorugh favorite topics and "fanart" of their favorite series. I use deviantart to see what other people use as inspiration and hopefully be inspired myself. But I also use it for humor because as the site grows, it's used for more humorous and comical ideas.
www.wikia.com- This website is like a wikipedia for all the information on specific subjects. I can look up a video game and and company and the site will lead me to information on characters, plot, and develpoments in new games. I can look up a person and get link to all the books or movies that they have worked on.
www.youtube.com- I of course use the popular website to find the song that I heard on the radio and absolutely needed to hear again. This gives me the ability to find out what everyone is talking about when Lady Gaga has "gone too far again" with her latest video and see exactly what everyone means. It also helps me browse through the songs on albums that you don't hear on the internet so that instead of the thirty second preview you get on Itunes, you can hear the whole song then decide if the whole album is worth it.
So if this is wasting time, I guess you have your opinion, but I'm curious about what websites other people spend so much time on, so tell me please.
