Probably, only forums.

This forum, my forums, chris' forums, hard forums, a forum for graphics, an HTML forum, and a PHP forum.

I tend to visit newsgroups via OE rather than web based boards. I visit comp.lang.php pviiwebdev.css pviiwebdev.web alt.php.sql a few powerlifting/bodybuilding NGs.

I also visit www.devarticles.com www.zend.com www.devshed.com , the forum at www.chadnicholls.net.

Maybe once a week I pop into a few friends blogs and on a daily basis usually visit Google for doing searches.

Every few weeks I pop into the dev/design center at Macromedia, see whats new.

As for forums, this is really the only one I read regularly unless I need something specifick, like help with Movabletype, then I go do a search of their forums because more often than not my question has already been answered. I also read the TopStyle usenet group and I browse the subjects of the pviiwebdev group. I have a couple of email pals that I correspond with. There are a couple of blogs I read. I read news at myYahoo. I check my bank online - that doesn't take long as there's nothing in there. :( I browse through ebay and amazon. Somewhere during all that browsing and reading, I try to get some work done. :)

I work for the state. So, no I guess I really don't. :cool:

By the way, Sara, my wife Jennifer signed up and did your towel exchange. She really enjoyed it. She even got a towel from Australia and I think she had to send one to New Zealand. Sending them turned out to be more costly than buying them. LOL. She's writing emails right now to thank the people she got towels from. If you do it again next year I'm sure she'll participate.

Aside from the daily checkups on bandwidth, etc, just code related sites, zend.com, hotscripts.com.

not to much time for random surfing at the moment.

Chris' site (http://www.gotthegeek.com).

Amongst the top sites that I visit on a daily basis, they are:

Yahoo! (http://www.yahoo.com)
Newegg.com (http://www.newegg.com)
Something Awful (http://www.somethingawful.com)
[H]ard|OCP (http://www.hardocp.com)
Slashdot (http://www.slashdot.org)
CNN.com (http://www.cnn.com)

I used to frequent the Hacker Network Forums (http://hackernetwork.com/forum/) a lot, but ever since more and more people started joining and thinking it was a real hacking site, it pretty much went down hill, so I don't have a forum that has a lot of members that produce some interesting threads.

Ooooooooooooooh Aaron, thanks for letting me know! Yeah, we are doing another one in the Spring with options for out of the US and other countries or just US based. That way no one is stuck sending 4 towels from Oz to the US. I'm glad she enjoyed it!!

I don't get there much anymore, but try to stop by www.sitepointforums.com a few times a month. I use to keep up with Sitepoint and a few others more often, but now I just check in here about once or twice a week to see what is going on or to check for resources if I need them.
