As an internet junkie and a blogger, you can be pretty sure that I’ve found some ways to spend time on the internet. Sometimes, when I lack inspiration or just a topic to write about, I decide to drop by one of these sites. They are either my current regulars or have been in the past – in fact, I probably visit them a lot more than I should.

Disclaimer – these three types of places can concentrate your focus rather than dilute it, so don’t plan on multi-tasking.

1. Tower Defense

First and foremost, you can definitely not start the list without Tower Defense. It’s an extremely addicting game and can get frustration right out of your system – if you win. It also takes a lot of brain power, so I guess it’s safe to say that it trains your analytical thinking. Right.

2. Other Blogs

To be specific, I drop by two blogs at least once a day:

• Problogger
• Copyblogger
  
• Engadget
• Gizmodo

Surprised? Yep – I focus on blogging more than technology. I figure that news is one thing, but crafting and creating the whole article is a complete other. Besides, I find much more interesting news on Dailytech. Who needs more tech blogs around (har har)?

3. Forums

I’ve got three forums to tell you about:

• APH Networks
• Neowin
• Howard Forums

Each of these forums have contributed individually to my understanding and insight on technology as it is today – and I do constantly and consistently learn more information from them on a regular basis. They’re all great communities, but with very different ideals and cultures.
