Boredom
So when I get bored, I suppose I get overzealous on the internet. Like the other day I made a plead to threadless users as to good blogs out there that they knew of. Stevethegreat suggested this DC Sports Bog, I read it some, but reading about sports isn't really my thing. I like to watch it, and that be that. But some sports lovers out there might really enjoy it, it's not boring at all, just not my thing. Another user, bonedaddy, suggested this site, they are "a tiny little division" of Hallmark (Shoebox) and it's hilarious! I LOVE IT! There are lots of different people contributing to it, including bonedaddy's sister, Tina. So definately check it out. And I love those Shoebox cards too, they are always really funny, and very enjoyable! T4sh4 suggested digg. Which I did already know about thanks to Kevin, but it is a good idea to get back into that when I'm bored! They usually have really good articles and interesting pictures. So thanks! Later on, she also suggested Reddit, which is similar to digg, so that looks pretty interesting too! I had to ignore some people, I'm sorry, but I'm not going to follow a link that says "ratemypoo.com" no thank you! Lemonalle gave me the link to Neatorama, which is ...well...neat. It has very intresting things on it, so definately check it out!
Another thing I did, was even out my friends on Twitter. I know, weird, but I don't like it when there are just a few in the last row, I like it to be all even! A lot of random people friend me, so I decided to go into my "follower" column and see who actually had something interesting to read. Of those, I chose Brian Shaler, frankgilroy, and twittown. Then I went through Kevin's friends (I'm a stealer, I know) to see if I could find anyone else I knew. And I found ponzarelli, who is Chris Pirillo's wife. He does a lot of stuff on the internet Kevin likes to follow, and he is on the internet a lot, so I can totally relate with her. They have some cute videos online called geek love or something. I'll ask Kevin where they are when he's around so I can post some links to them on here! (he says, "Somewhere in here: http://www.youtube.com/lockergnome")
Here is one:
and some others:
Geek Marriage Counseling
Geek Love
More Geek Love
Then I went to the public timeline, which is just where they show everyone's updates as they come in, and it updates every four minutes, and I just looked for someone who was most interesting on there. And that was StarFlower! Congrats! Haha. She has a pretty awesome icon, so that was just bonus points. So now all my friends are even! YAY!
Don't judge me on how few friends I have, and yes I know a lot of them are fictional...shhh!
I also split up my links over in the side bar to the right of here into two sections "Me Around the Net" and "Other Links." I just felt like doing it. :)
AND, I got a tumblr account. So that should be fun. I'm still waiting for a pownce invite. Those who get an invite are lucky, but not if they rub it in my face! Haha.
I think that is it for now. Have a nice evening! :)
