Ok...since I didn't do the first blog properly, I'll do it properly this time. I have class Mondays and Thursdays only, so I'm on the internet a lot during my days off. I spend about 6-7 hours total browsing online. Most of my time is spent reading news articles, mainly from Drudgereport.com. I'd say 75% of all the news I read comes from this portal. CNN is biased and a joke, however I do read some of their articles as well. Every weekend I read Peggy Noonan's column. She is an excellent writer, and an excellent political analyst and satirist, however Wall Street Journal is making me pay now to read her article, so that makes me sad. The other few hours I spend reading sports news. An avid Jets fan, I scour Jets related message boards, namely nyjetsfan.com and theganggreen.com. Espn.com is another one of my main go-to-sites.
Facebook is not really a favorite place to hang out online for me. I maybe log in every few days or so, mainly to get updates from my friends that are still in school or have moved away, and to check on peoples birthdays. That's like the best feature on facebook, it reminds bad friends like me, when to say happy birthday to people. I visit ebaumsworld.com and break.com every once in a while as well. They have some decently funny content but usually its pretty lame. I do enjoy the break picture galleries and ebaumsworld monday morning randomness galleries. It has taken a dive over the last year or so, but theres an occasional funny picture.
Does internet on our phone count as places we should discuss here too? If yes, i visited imdb a few times and used espn score alert for Syracuse football because i couldn't find it on tv. And i used the awesome google voice search feature on it to find BofA atms, then put the location into my gps, all while driving; that was pretty cool.
I actually created this blog during our first class meeting on my phone. I did it namely to see if my phone was able to do it, and secondly because I felt i would forget. I was able to successfully create it using my phone which was pretty easy, and in the process, it showed me that i already created a blog on here years ago for an english class which i had completely forgotten about. I'm not a big blogger obviously, I don't really feel it necessary or fun to just tell the world about my boring days and activities, however this blog is for class and will mainly consist of academic related material, so that is something i feel is worthwhile to blog about haha.
