Top Ten Thursday! Top Ten Time Wasters on the Internet

by LZ on August 20, 2009

Top Ten Thursday Button

Welcome to the very first edition of Top Ten Thursday!

Let us introduce ourselves! We are:

LZ from My Messy Paradise

Jennifer from It’s A Beauty Filled Life

Sara from Domestically Challenged

Zeemaid from In The Mommy Trenches!

We thought it would be a great idea to bring some fun to Thursdays, so we’re co-hosting Top Ten Thursday!

Leave a comment, tell me where you spend your time online…or…even better – If you’d like to play and this is your first time visiting – or your first time playing – here’s what you do:

1. Grab our button, located in the sidebar to the right
2. Choose your Top Ten topic (or use ours!)
3. Write up your list and post it on your blog
4. Link up!

Easy peasy, right? Well, what are you waiting for? Let’s play!

I’ll admit…I spend a lot some time on the internet each day. Lots of time is spent reading blogs…lots of it isn’t…here’s where you’ll find me when I’m wasting my time online…Non-blog edition!

10. Celebrity Babies – Of course I care about who’s expecting and who’s not. Doesn’t everyone? No? Well, at least you might care to see that celebrities do puff up and look awful, just like us…I like that!

9. Perezhilton – Yes, I do keep up with celebrity gossip as if they are my best friends. I can’t help it. I kind of hate Perez, but he gets the dirt posted first, and he’s always right.

8. Kneebouncers – The cutest site for toddlers. Your keyboard becomes an instrument for them to bang on and play music. It’s very colorful, with adorable characters. No games, no skills needed…just fun for little ones!

7. PBSkids – M can play most of the games on her own and loves it. Works for me!

6. Youtube – This is here because J sends me a million video clips, so I have no choice but to be on youtube…but when I’m there, I always stay a while.

5. Facebook – Isn’t everyone on Facebook? It seems it. Not on nearly as much as I used to be, but I still love it. I love that it’s so easy to stay in touch these days…(Oh, you’re on Facebook? Do you follow My Messy Paradise?)

4. Twitter@MyMessyParadise Where else can people you’ve never met before feel like your friends?

3. Farkle (on Facebook) This deserves its own listing. I can not stop playing this stupid game. Friends…you beat my score, you will go down! I will play incessantly until I win…really.

2. Failblog – Instant laugh. I don’t know where people find these pictures, but they do, and I say thanks!

1. Joker’s Updates – At least right now, this is my favorite site. I’m a little bit addicted to Big Brother, and this site is full of spoilers. You find out in advance who is nominated, who wins veto, etc. Good stuff!

Please stop by and visit Jennifer, Sara and Zeemaid, won’t you?

We have so many of the same! I am so afraid to try Farkle, because I will become addicted like Bejeweled! I am a HUGE fan of failblog too! I love to laugh at them!

Failblog is hysterical! It’s run by the same folks that do ICanHasCheezburger. This is lots of fun!

Time-wasters, ahhhhh yes! I just found Celebrity Babies and I love it. Say what you will, ha! ha!
And see, I just (finally) joined Facebook 2 weeks ago and my days have been a huge blluuurrrrr ever since. Facebook is the Ultimate time-waster and yet, it’s so darn FUN meeting up with old friends…….couldn’t be better!
My sis has warned me to stay away from Farkle at all costs due to it’s highly addictive nature……so far I have managed to not look it in the eye! Please don’t make me go near it, please!!!

Great Top Ten!

My husband is addicted to something with jewels on facebook. Every time I go down the basement, he’s playing that thing!

That is so funny about Farkle…I must admit I have spent many hours playing it. And my friends and I can get very competitive! Just stay away from Farm Town. I made fun of my husband and his mom for playing it…then got curious…then got hooked! Oh well…

Enjoy reading the blog!!
