Subject: What are your daily 'go to' websites?

I realized that I pretty much go to the same web sites everyday.  What sites are your go to sites each time you get online?

Mine:

BT of course - to add my training log info, read the forums

Facebook - to waste time

Yahoo - news, finance and email

CNN - for news

Bank of America - my bank

Craigslist - look for tri gear deals

Subject: RE: What are your daily 'go to' websites?

it varies day to day, but generally these are my goto's:

Drudge Report (conservative news aggrigator)
Foxnews (national unbiased headlines)
Omaha.com (local news)
marketwatch.com (see how much money i'm going to lose today)
freerepublic.com (right wing site to see what's cooking in the conservative world)
democraticunderground.com (left wing site to see what's cooking on the liberal world)
BT (to spam my newfound wisdom and knowledge learned from the above)
youtube (mindless entertainment, mostly watching gun videos, singing audition videos, or fail compilations)

Every single day its:  Fitbit, BT  and ESPN radio without fail. 

At MY office, excessive internet use is frowned uppon.  So I keep it to very neutral sites and save the rest for when I get home, then it varies.

Without fail, I've got two tabs, at least, open... FB and BT. 

I use iGoogle a lot to do searches. 

IMDB gets used a lot.

Aside from those, I go to KarbonSpeed.com, all3sports.com, and nytro.com about once a week to remind myself of the cool tri gear I can't afford... like a Cervelo P3.

When I get up, I put CNN or CNN HLN on and check:

online cartoons: Day by Day, Schlock Mercenary, Least I Could Do, Frazz, Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal, xkcd, Sandra and Woo, The Whiteboard, and 2 Lumps.

Then my email

BT

my bank account and credit cards (I check daily for fraud)

Then FoxNews. Yah, I watch CNN on TV and check FoxNews online. I figure some shred of truth is somewhere in between, and a lot of entertainment is to be had with the rest.

Garmin Connect after a run or ride

eBay (should I have let those Jet 6's go, or should I have bid on them. Oh well, there'll be other wheelsets)

And sometimes I just surf around looking for anything that catches my eye. Articles on quantum entanglement, the Crimean War, the history of plaid, whatever.
