What's your "Default" Web Site?
{ Internets }
May 15, 2008
Does everyone, like me, have a “default” Web site that you visit when bored or on auto-pilot? The place you go to peruse stuff, for fun and relaxation? I guess the answer here might be “my RSS reader” for some people, but I find it therapeutic to go through the motions of clicking and scrolling on actual, real Web pages sometimes.
For me it is without doubt LibraryThing. Cataloging, reviewing, organizing, looking at the forums, dreaming.

Wonderful games with Caslon
I think of my feed reader as more an obligation than a pleasure, as if it were my duty to clean it out by reading items or at least marking them as read.
If I get that done and still am looking for something to do that isn’t terribly productive, I usually delve into political sites like Talking Points Memo or, to see what the other side is talking about or just out of sheer bloody-mindedness, the Drudge Report. And then on to even more analytical wonk sites like the Washington Monthly or Atrios.
If I’m really scraping the bottom of the barrel for entertainment, I’ll head over to Boing Boing, but usually I don’t need that strong of a diversion.
Gotta say Digg (http://www.digg.com). I could spend hours on there reading all the news stories, various videos and pictures.
