site you read everyday instead of working
Miscellaneous Forums/General Discussion/site you read everyday instead of working
for me it's:
www.google.com/news
www.userfriendly.org/static
www.tomshardware.com
www.blitzbasic.com
www.slashdot.org
www.theregister.com
Well, when I'm reading these sites I'm working (mostly ;-)) because I write game reviews, make games and do Internet Marketing.
http://www.blitzbasic.com/http://forums.indiegamer.com/index.php?http://www.gameproducer.net/http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/http://news.bbc.co.uk/ (oh and I only read technology/science/funny stuff)
http://www.binaryjoy.co.uk/And several other game review/news sites...
Apart from a few Dutch news-sites:
www.msx.org
www.blitzbasic.co.nz
www.filmtracks.com
www.vintagesynth.com/
And not really a news/community site I think, but I regulary just randomly read stuff on Wiki.
www.bash.org
I usually check the indiegamer forums (http://forums.indiegamer.com/index.php?) along with some guitar related sites, and a forum for one of my favorite progressive bands, "Pain of Salvation."
Other than that - well, I've been knee deep in learning as of late.
bash.org is now my favourite site!
www.deviantart.com
www.okcupid.com
www.blitzbasic.com
www.ebaumsworld.com
www.zipperfish.com
and maddox.
That's what I have as a home page (in tabs)
I don't generally read -all- of these things every day. I mean. Zipperfish rarely updates their stuff anymore and there hasn't been a new YAAFM in like years. And Maddox rarely updates as well. But I 'check' them everyday cause it doesn't hurt me to, seeing as they load off on the end.
Ebaums is in there cause I can count on it to distract me and sometimes make me laugh.
The other 3 I look at at least once an hour when I'm at the PC... It makes for a good eye-breaker and something to do to clear my mind when I am doing classwork, which is all online.

www.bbc.co.uk/news
www.weebls-stuff.com
www.wikipedia.com
www.blitzbasic.com
www.indiegamer.com
If my highschool didn't block every site after I've visited it more then 10 times, I'd have a list.
Oddly enough they've never gotten around to killing BlitzBasic.com for me under the "Internet Communications" filter the 5 years I been there.
www.blitzbasic.com
www.gamespot.com
www.ign.com
www.imdb.com
www.msn.com (for the news)
and i hate to say it, but I occasionally like to jump onto those religous forums and mess with people...
Is there a Blitz section on forums.indiegamer.com/index.php? As a Blitzer is it worth taking a look at?
Thanks

No. And yes but only if you are into finishing and selling your games as that's what most of the stuff is about.
