Websites to Browse when You're Bored

The Perfect Way to Waste Some Time

Wendy Rose Gould
Whether you're sitting at work with nothing to do, taking a break or simply looking for a way to spend some time, browsing the Internet is an easy option. The following Web sites are some of the best places to check out. That's because they're chock-full of laughs, humor, interesting information and beyond.

Nasa.gov: For those who are science-savvy (or simply have an appreciation for the Universe), this Web site is for you. Check out the NASA photograph of the day (and browse the archives) or read up on the latest news on NASA's blog.

LameBook.com: If you haven't jumped on the Facebook bandwagon, chances are this site won't do much for you. But if you're one of the millions of folks who are signed up and active on the social network, this is probably one of the funniest sites you could ever visit. Enjoy hundreds of funny screen shots from everyday people.

Reddit.com: Reddit is a unique web forum that pushes the most interesting topics to the front page and lets the less-interesting topics fall to the wayside. You can simply lurk on this site, checking out the various links, pictures and stories that users share. Or you can become an active member and engage in discussions about things that are posted.

PeopleOfWalmart.com: Going to Wal-Mart is a culture experience in itself. This Web site serves as an ode to the supermarket. The way it works is that normal, everyday people submit photographs of...interesting...characters browsing the aisles of Wal-Mart. You can submit your own or amuse yourself by browsing the Web sites pages.

ChatRoulette.com
: ChatRoulette has become a viral Internet sensation. So long as you're not at work and able to stomach some less-than-appealing views (some nudity), you may be able to find some interesting people who are trying to waste some time as well. Since people from all over the world use the site, there's the potential to meet people from Italy, France, Japan, Africa and all over the United States. If you don't have a Web cam on your computer, you can get your fix by checking out this Web site: BestOfChatRoulette.com.

    Cool sites. Unfortunately, I don't seem to need any help wasting my time. I have to keep remembering that procrastination is not my friend.
