Regular Websites

Tell me the websites you're visiting regularly and I tell you what type of person you are… Uh, just joking. But I find it interesting to what kind of websites I am frequently returning to.


The categories:

Several times per day:

I think the two sites I click to most often are the "earthquakes in Japan" site (ahem… kind of obsessed with that. To such an extent that I feel queasy when there hasn't been a quake for 5 hours or so…!) and the BBC's international news page.


My "home" is Yahoo… I don't know why, it's always been that way. When I started out with the Internet Yahoo was my home and it has stayed like that because I am such a loyal person (uh?). So, of course, I am clicking through their news pop ups too.


Once a day:

Germany's ARD news site and the Japan weather site.


Every two days or so:

Wikipedia and the earthquakes in the world site which I find to be just amazing…

The ultimate German/English dictionary: Leo from the TU (technical university) Munich and wadoku.de, the best online German/Japanese dictionary (at least in my opinion).


Every three days or so:

Imdb – the internet movie database – nerd that I am, I need to find out stuff about the movies and TV shows that I'm watching.


Every four days or so = twice a week:

SF scope for SF news and/or Locus online


Once a week:

Facebook, twitter and goodreads, this blog here.


Regular sites, but maybe not every week:

Japan's Movie Walker to know what's playing. Boing Boing for odd news. Stupid amateur vidos of cute doggies on animal all stars to relax and put a smile on my face when I need a cute attack. Some weird stuff on YouTube, mostly metal band vids ;-) .

Then of course all sorts of book (= real work) related sites – agent sites, publisher sites, author sites and and and.

So, what are your regular sites? Lemme know :-)
