Personally, I've just been going around making irregular stops everywhere, but i do have a tendency to shadow the redvsblue website xkcd and penny arcade. What about everyone else?

I guess YouTube when I hit boredom central, and Facebook, but other than that I do Kongregate... nothing else!

and I periodically check to see what is happening with Martin Bell's gruelling single-handed hobbyist remake of Carrier Command:

homepage.ntlworld.com/martingbell/projects
www.gamedev.net/community/forums/mod/journal/journal.asp?jn=472138

this helps me keep perspective on my own videogame project that I am still stuck designing the tools/ui for... begun way back in 1988...
no point having a website or blogging about it, until I have something to show someone...

Rooster Teeth, Cracked, Bungie.net, Penny Arcade, XKCD and Youtube. However, I noyl ever go to youtube when I'm either bored beyond reason or I just want to laugh at the hopelessly idiotic comments.

Gametrailers, Screwattack, Youtube, Wikipedia, IGN (for the comics pages), RPGfan, Spoony Experiment and That Guy With the Glasses.

Each run on the net (whenever I turn on my compy and decide to go on the net) I go to these sites in pretty much that order, not including Escapist of course.
