For This week's Ten on Tuesday:
10 Ways to Waste Time on the Internet
(I should have absolutely NO trouble with this one.
I spend the majority of my life on the internet!)
1. Facebook
(Heck I could make a list of ways to waste time solely on Facebook! Farmville, Farmtown, Wordscraper, Status Updates, Bejeweled... etc, etc.)
2. IM Chatting
(I'm pretty much carrying on a conversation with someone via an instant messenger at all times I'm on the computer. I chat on AIM, Windows Live/MSN Messenger, Yahoo, Gmail, and Facebook. Yes, I probably need an intervention.)
3. E-mail Forwards
(I currently have 547 unread messages in my inbox... that's down from over 700. I get SO many of those "forwarded" e-mails, and I just don't have enough time to look at them all.)

4. Blogging
(I personally don't consider this a 'waste' of time, but it's one of the ways I spend the most time on the internet.)

6. Twitter
(I personally don't spend much time on there. It just hasn't 'clicked' for me yet, but I know a LOT of people spend a LOT of time on there)

8. Message Boards/Forums
(I have spent a LOT of time in a Border Collie forum and a forum created by my favorite author, Sara Donati. I've met some truly wonderful people and developed some special friendships.)

(Seriously - once you start, you can't stop)

10. Online Quizzes
(Fun little quizzes which ask you questions and then tell you about yourself based on your answers)

I'm definitely guilty of going on the Internet when I'm supposed to be doing something important. Facebook? Homework? Hmmmmmmm...which should I choose?
Great list! Have to agree with the fact we could make a whole list just with Facebook apps!!
Hope you had a lovely Halloween :)
