Do you participate on any other message boards?

What sites are your favorite for wasting time on the internet?

I have a nursing baby and often have a period of time to kill.

Right now just my local Nest spin off. In the past I've been a member of lots & lots, mostly private boards that were spin offs or spin offs of spin offs of the Nest parenting boards. Private boards usually get boring /or too cliquish after a year or 2. I've lurked mostly on mothering.com ( mostly the Montessori board), child modeling board (since my kids were doing that for years) k some specialty kids clothing boards too. Oh & home & decor ivillage boards.

I'm part of a shopping board. I don't recommend it. NOT MM at all.

Do you like tv? I love television without pity.

I used to browse purse forum. There are several subtopics, not just bags.

Same here. But whenever I get into regularly browsing there, I start obsessing over $$$ things to buy. Not MM

I occasionally visit a work-from-home forum related to the google rater thing I do p/t.

Some of my favorite time-wasting sites are:

www.digg.com - random interesting articles that are trending on the internet
www.gawker.com - similar concept; somewhat more political
www.dlisted.com - celeb gossip with raunchy/fun commentary
www.buzzfeed.com - fun things to read

I post on Ravelry, but that's not useful to you unless you're a knitter/crocheter.

I also love reading Oh No They Didn't. ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/

I am in a ton of FB groups, most of them cloth diaper related, and also some local "crunchy" mom groups.

I used to be on the bump but quit it a few months ago and I'm really glad I did, so much stupidity over there.

What I miss about the nest is lurking on the family matters board and reading other people's drama

Just purse forum. I'm too lazy to get involved in anything new.

I love anything travel/flying related so I often lurk on Flyertalk.

I like MetaFilter, which is a group blog that always has something interesting to read, and its spinoff site Ask Metafilter, where people pose questions to the site's members about anything and everything. Both sites are a bit more...intellectually developed, shall we say...than the average community site.

Sometimes I lurk on Urbanbaby when I have time to kill. It's kind of hilarious. They have insanely ferocious SAHM/WOHM arguments. The income posts relating to NYC are also interesting to me because it's so outrageously expensive to live there with kids.
