Outside of Multiply what are three of your favorite websites if I may as again - so often I find that we do miss out and I just have had this computer done and I love reading websites as well. I am sure that you do 2. Three of mine that I can think of are: 1. http://bigthink.com/ 2. http://www.aldaily.com/ 3. http://www.ted.com/ Perhaps you have a few and it would be interesting as if one was to exchange computers we all would have different favorites from which we read outside. I found one a few that had posted a few links and I found them sensational to read. If only one - this is fine as well.

  3. I only have multiply, yahoo answers, and yahoo chat with my friends. I do go to facebook to check up on some of my friends and family who are on there and play bejeweled once in a while. What I enjoy most on the internet is interacting with people on messenger of windows live since it is the only one that is reliable but my friends are on yahoo which keeps disconnecting. I do go to youtube sometimes. Usually this takes the whole day as I am in here off and on.

  4. Besides here, my Yahoo email is always open. I shop on Amazon a lot, used books & CDs, stuff for work. The last few months I've been in ncaa.com for basketball stats as I am a March Madness freak. Of course Google is a staple, for surfing for whatever question I want answered.

  6. Summer there is a very neat application that I was thinking of the other day and it's www.copernic.com. In this case it's an application and I think you might find it to be of great interest. I used to do much more reading on sites of philosophy and so forth. Today as I was rather home bound I looked at all my favorites and thought there may be some others that are of worth. Yet still I do believe there are some very interesting sites and I was curious to see what others have a few if not more.

  9. Jack, I just checked out aldaily...I love it!!! Thank you for sharing.

    Most of the things I look at online pertain to art or music. And lots of them locally.

  10. I check NPR every few days. But then I listen to it in the car.

  11. Your welcome there are many great sites out there and the read is great.
    But so I ponder if we are learning or just communicating by way of blogging.
    Just my thoughts.

  12. chfweb.net It's a homeschoolers' forum, with topics on everything from homeschooling, homemaking, current issues, family relationships, a teen forum, you name it.
    facebook; to keep up with distant family

    That's about it for me.

  13. Faye, I still do read sites, from Universities and then ones I find interesting to read. Thanks and a good week ahead to you.
    Stanford University. Facebook again is a communications local not a website such as http://www.brookings.edu/ and then
    Oprah just started up this OWN....which I am sure will cover many areas.

  19. Did you check out the site? The virtual tours are amazing.

  20. Great and thank you Rashmi. I have to look at Samachar.com and I love NPR and yes books as well. The BBC started charging for it's page I believe.
    And this MIT's opencourseware sounds very interesting along with Samarchar. I am going to add in here there is a Cille that I am going to send over to you for
    consideration as she writes very much within philosophy. Thank you again Rashmi.

  21. I did last night Sharon. What I am doing here is looking for other websites as after I did a format and reinstall of my home desktop, I wished to see what others read outside of a social network. Sometimes I think we tend to forget all that is there and we just use only a portion of a computer. Where there still are some treamendous sites Sharon. This is one example and thanks.

  22. Patty I love TED.COM when I received this by a friend here where I live, I then started to think over how much
    time I spend on here as well as how much I spend in learning and exploring.

  23. No I was referring to websites, not social networks.
    There is a difference between the two Maritess.

  24. utube is a hoot. I never thought within my life I would find some of the old things as before. That is
    an excursion onto itself and then some. :)

  25. Part of the reason for the mapping project is for virtual tours for school children. Also because of preservation some sites are closed to the public all together or only open occasionally. This allows people to explore the sites without doign damage. People don't know but even human breath releases chemicals that affect the delicate paintings on the wall. Also the oils from peoples skin is very damaging to the tombs. Whlie everyone would like to experience them, allowing them in will eventually distroy them for future generations, This is a good fix

  26. People seemingly can't differentiate between these websites and social sites.

    http://wwii.ca/index.php < Website
    http://www.usask.ca/ < Website

    http://multiply.com/ < Social site

  27. I am much into 'googling out things and places, Jack. And that fascinated me more than I can explain. It's just amazing i could go places with just a touch of a finger. I love the virtual walks to different places and visiting places provided by googles helps me do that. And yep, am on to some medical history. Reading it, to keep me at bay with recent discoveries and know hows, thou' i am not a medical practitioner.
