Prepare to be bored
Hi, all. I've got a question: what do you do online when you're bored? I mean, once you've checked your email and your blog and gone round your daily hit list of sites: then what?
This week's column is going to be about online cures for boredom, so any input from you would be gratefully received. (Obviously I can't link to porn sites, or sites with a lot of nudity, so that particular source of interest is out.) Here are some of my favourites:
Wikipedia-ing really simple words like "tree" or "cow"
Playing "ask the Ebay search fairy to bring you your heart's desire"
Googling for half-remembered song lyrics
dearinter.net's Answer-o-matic
...but these are way lame compared to what YOU could come up with. Go on, surprise me.
