Your internet schedule

Nine BoomerNine Boomer
edited December 2008 in Everything Else
What do you do daily on the internet? My schedule comprises of:

1. Check digg for anything awesome (not likely).
2. Go to the Fun-Motion forums to find new physics games, engines, and demonstration.
3. Go to this forum and read most topics.
4. Go to Rock Paper Shotgun for some gaming news.
5. Check on the puppy cam! They'll be gone soon though.

I'm trying to incorporate these websites into my daily routine because I always seem to forget about them since I'm too lazy to bookmark:
Fark
Jayisgames
Slashdot

What do you guys do daily every day to keep up with your favorite websites?

    1. Look at Google reader.
    2. Check my e-mail
    3. look at these forums

    It may vary depending on what I find in my e-mail/Google reader, but that's the basic process. Sometimes I'll check up on the sites that don't have an RSS feed, like TIGS or Sinfest.

    Browse through my home pages, which updates me on Canadian and world news, the lives of my friends, the FRC forums, the coolest and latest electronics hacks, and the few webcomics I still read. I'll also fire up Thunderbird and check my email a few times a day.

    1. Come to work
    2. Internet
    3. Leave work

    Internet consists of enough things to keep me occupied for HOURS. Some days I don't get to them all because of work. They include commerce, forums, news, and email. I don't want to go into detail.

    The internet is pretty endless yeah. And that's only the English part. Also, god, I just went from 209 unread items in Google Reader (190+ were new torrents) to 1038. The new Google Reader design is indeed nice. The lack of Web 2.0 roundness was 'unsettling', but now I'm an avid user, again. I browsed the other new features, more bundles...

    Shit. Another funny is the bundle that comes after 'Theology'.

    At work, I have two Firefox windows open. The first has all of my work stuff (CRM system, Knowledge base, Order pages if I need to order parts, etc). The second has gmail, Google Reader, the FRC forums, and Facebook. Facebook is only there because it's the only IM system that isn't blocked by Kodak's corporate proxy.

    I also open my ubuntu virtualbox and have that running in seamless mode. Whenever I set up an http proxy I'll ssh to that and be able to IM again. (Yes, I actually use IM/ IRC for work stuff. My supervisor and I are trying to get Kodak to go open source, so I've been futzing with a few CRM solutions. Also, working on linux drivers for our printers, because the dev guy hasn't gotten back to us in a month.)

    EDIT: As for my Google Reader, I think I still have 1000+ articles / webcomics to read. There are a lot of cooking blogs, quite a few blogs about Tokyo (fun things to do, et. al.), and a few literary/artistic/techie blogs (also, science blogs).

    Basically, I always have something to read, wherever I am. (Yay for the iPhone?)

    Man, email is the last thing I check.

    1) My roleplaying sites
    2) Youtube (left open in the background)
    3) Emails

    Once a week I'll check webcomics, or I'll come here every so often, depending on time and such.

    I use gtalk so that I'm notified of all my emails upon start up. I only ever open gmail when I know that I have an email to answer, so that's a small thing that I don't have to deal with.

    1) I use iGoogle so I can see what the Top 10 stories on Digg are, if I have new e-mail, and what's new on my reader.
    2) Browse the forums
    3) Check my Myspace. Everyone I know uses it so I might as well.
    4) Browse random things.

    I made it fairly simple on myself. I have two auto load tabs in Safari. I load all my 42 web-comics (yes I know, I'm an addict), and then press my daily tab which loads an assortment of "haha" pic/flash sites, forums (including this one), blogs, and other assorted goodies. Email is set on a local program, so it's always updating, no need to go looking.

    Sounds like you should be using feeds.
