How I Use the Internet

1) Facebook: I check Facebook about every 3 seconds. I play farmville, creep on friends and share random amusing links to all my friends.

2) Twitter: I have a twitter and i don't even know why. My friend told me to get one so i did. I update it way too much. I believe people actually want to know what I'm doing, right that very second, but know that no one really truly cares. And it's a fun place to find random links for me to post on Facebook. (hahaha)

3) Gmail: The handy-dandy all inclusive email client. I use this to get and read all those pesky e-mails things. It usually just sits open in a tab so that i can use it to get to other Google application sites like Calender, Documents, and Web Search

4) YouTube: My Tuba? No, YouTube-ah. I use youtube mainly to listen to music. It's a great way to find new artists and songs. I'm also love music videos. The ones that i find truly spectacular i post on this blog for future reference when i need inspiration for a project.

5) Hulu: I watch too much TV and hulu isn't helping out at all. I actually have "Hulu Desktop" downloaded on my laptop. It's nice because I can hook up my laptop to my TV and watch a show full screen and do work on my laptop screen (which i may or may not be doing right now... I needed to catch up on Bones). It's great to have most TV shows all in one place but it's bad because i can always find something to watch when my queue.

6) Pandora: The music genome project. I like to open this in a tab, choose/create a station, and just listen. It studies various aspects of the song or artist and finds other songs with the same feel and plays them.

So i mainly use the internet for entertainment but also for networking and research.
