I have openly admitted that I am a Facebook junkie. I love to know what my friends are up to. I love to chat with them and to find names and faces that I haven't seen or heard from in years. Take tonight, for example, when I chatted with a friend that now lives in Colorado. It was so great getting to know what he has been up to since the last time I saw him, some 16 or so years ago.
My brother, Bill, introduced me to a new and fun addiction during our time together during the holidays. It is called Stumble Upon. At this site you are randomly taken to different websites - most of which are incredibly interesting, beautiful, or completely insane. You can tag the ones you really like so that similar sites will be stumbled upon more frequently.
Right now I am very intrigued by photography sites and the weird / interesting sites. Typically I don't look at either one of these genres while browsing the web. I'm usually into news, news, news, and sports, sports, sports. Every once in a while I like to hit some youtube sites. (You have to check out that music site, especially my fellow drummer friends out there.)
There are hundreds of sites that I have seen through Stumble. Here, however, are 5 new sites that I like and that I thought I would share with you to see if you can get hooked with me. After all, junkies need one another, right?
1. Nick Brandt Photography - Beautiful African animal photography. Probably touched up backgrounds, I am guessing, but oh, so nice! The lion before the storm is my current desktop background.
2. Dirty Car Window Art - Who would have thunk it? I'm confident someone took buckets of dust and poured them onto these poor car windows.
3. Strange Animals - Check out the fainting goats link at the bottom too. My family and I laughed so hard when going through the goat pages! :) I want a small herd.
4. Just Hear It - Like free music? Try this site. It advertises that it is completely legal. (More like an instant radio than a download site.)
5. Sunlight Map - See where the sun is on the Earth's surface.
What did you think? Like the sites? There are so many more but I feel I have hyperlinked enough for one evening.
If you become addicted, like me, feel free to send me a comment suggesting some other unique and interesting sites. But, be careful and don't say I didn't warn you.
