I frequently hear people say that they've seen EVERYTHING there is to see on the web and they are SO BORED.

Generally I would direct them to hatrack (of course), reddit, digg, fark, theonion, alexa (to see the top ranked websites), youtube, boingboing.net, cynical-c, flickr, espn, scienceblogs, wikipedia, and epinions.

Where do you direct people when they ask for surfing directions?

I think it's impossible for anyone to ever see everything on the net. I mean there's always new stuff being added, so even if you keep on a certain pace, you'll probably fall behind (unless your pace is greater than the pace of new content being put up, but I still say that's impossible).

That's certainly true pfresh. [Smile]

That's why I love places like hatrack and reddit, because I always get the latest info filtered by smart and thoughtful people.

It might, however, be possible to see all the good stuff on the Internet.

Very possible, indeed.

WWW = Lots of Surfing Hours

lately my website (becaue I finally added something new) [Big Grin]

In fact, I think I'll start a thread because I haven't brought it to anyone's attention here.

Hmphhh. If I see the same stupid e-mails forwarded anymore, I'm gonna blow a gasket. [Roll Eyes]

Never mind seeing all there is to see on the web. Hmphhh.

Every link you'll ever need to be part of the pop culture of the internet.

Wow, good one. For some reason you always give me the best suggestions (see e.g. Veronica Mars). [Smile]

Hi Shan, I sort of liked those emails you forwarded to me last year. [Big Grin]

Posted by human_2.0 (Member # 6006) on :

Wow. That is a long list. I feel out of touch all of a sudden.

Posted by Shan (Member # 4550) on :

That's very naughty of you to remind me of that, Beren. I didn't send you the Mars one. The 1st, 2nd, OR 3rd time I received it. Or the one about the dangers of daddy long-legs. Or the gazillionth one about praying for thus and such . . . [Razz]

You can't read the whole internet? Then why do I keep hitting this page every day?

For those of you who might be thinking that there's nothing good left on the net just visit www.elfwood.com and get lost in the woods.
