The Internet is a wonderful place. It can be anything from a gigantic shopping mall with endless sales, to an ultimate wise man who knows about anything. Besides, it can also be a club/forum, a library, a theater, a playground,. tThe list can go on and on. I have absolutely fallen fell in love with it at first sight and have never parted with it ever since.
As an old hand (a veteran) of Internet surfing, I have gradually developed a favorite list of my own. It might be a boring list to many of you, but each one of them on the list has its own charm to me. In next paragraphs I would tell you the useful and healthy ones, but I would also try to keep you away from harm(out of harm's way), which means I won’t (disclose?)（include) those that are most addictive. In fact, I stopped going to those sites myself long time ago. :-)
Nowadays, the first thing I would do every work day is to read through the tech blogs I nicely (diligently)/( have neatly) collected on my google homepage. They not only keep me at (the bleeding edge of) (current/abreast with) technologies, but also enable me bragging (to brag) about them to pretend to be (so as to be seen as) a guru in front of my colleagues.
During work, I would skim through financial sites and blogs to watch stock prices, and read about the stock market whenever possible. Without exception, I also dream about hitting (the) jackpot on stock market someday and retiring on a sunny beach soon,. bBut that dream is fading away every day with the corruption (spiral down) of the American financial and banking system. What a shame! I could write a whole series of articles if I want to vent my anger on(over) Wall Street.
After work, besides MYSJ and Youtube, the most frequented links from my bookmark(s) recently are several fashion blogs (here is one I visited the most - http://www.extrapetite.com). I love those blogs because the bloggers are in the same petite figure as me. They post pictures and write insightful reviews about their new findings, as well as spreading the latest sales information. More importantly, they all write in English. I can learn a great deal of （note： slangy) (many) (useful)(fancy? vivid? idiamatic？) words and phrases about fashion and apparel, which will come in handy when I want to do girl talk with my female colleagues. I have been reading these blogs for a month now, and I will surely continue doing so.
Everyone knows now that MYSJ is my new addiction and I have been flooding(hosting) this forum as you all see it. Youtube is my only source of Chinese TV show because I have cancelled all my TV channels(subscriptions). These two have been discussed here by 99 and me, so I would simply stop here.
Thanks for reading. Looking forward to hearing about your own gems found on Internet.
Bricks are welcome as always.
