I spend about 14 hours a day on the internet and I got myself into a right tizzy trying to keep sight of every wonderful site I saw, bookmarking them etc. I also kept putting things onto scraps of paper.
I have now taken an old diary and I make a note of all the sites in there, so I can always find my favourite sites, I don't have to worry about book marks and I have cut down on the pieces of paper floating around my desk, which is just as well as I have three rosellas and when they decide to have a mad half hour they are like three miniature helicopters whizzing up all the papers :-)

Yes, the birds are absolute menaces and they love ripping newspapers and magazines to shreds as they are easier on their beaks than wood.
They are also like mini helicopters and if there is any paper not weighted down it just flies away.
I think you and I have the same system and we are fine as long as we are left alone lol.

I know the made in china site, it is very good and there is so much merchandise on it. Are you in business, or do you just like to browse?

LOL i was like that before! ^__^ whenever i stumble upon a site that i very much like, i would bookmark it and if im using computer in a shop, i would write down the name of the site on a piece of paper and boy, do i have lots of them! LOL but i dont write websites anymore now. if i like something in a website i'll either download it, print it, copy it or save it in a usb. ^__^ and then after that, i would completely forget about that website and i would tend to find new ones.

I use an address book to keep my internet sites. That way I can look them up my the alphabet.

I have an old diary that I have segmented into the alphabet. My trouble is that there are not enough hours in a day and when several sites have games and celebrations going on I am like a kid in a sweet shop and I could stay on line 24/7 if Other Half did not drag me off!

I make individual folders in my bookmarks and save the links in the folders marked for that particular interest.
I also copy and paste all my bookmarks in an email. I then send the email to myself. If my computer's hard-drive decides to fail, all I have to do is bring up my email where I saved all of my favorite links and save them all over again in my bookmark folders. This has worked really well for me, my bookmarks are not so long and cluttered with the folders. It is like a bookmark in a bookmark.

Are you still using these sites or have you added to the list? You seem to play a lot of games, have you made a circle of friends whilst playing or are you a lone wolf?
It is a while since I left the post, do you feel you have gravitated towards other interests, or are these sites still holding your attention?
I must say they are a very interesting collection.
