My new favorite time wasters

As mentioned in an earlier post, I am a bit behind the times as far as what's new to do on the internet. (Is AIM still popular? I have no idea...) However, I have belatedly found some new time wasters of my own. First of all is Facebook. My brother had been talking about it for awhile and, like usual, I ignored him. However, I finally decided to give it a whirl when I reconnected with a friend I had been out of touch with for a couple of years and he told me he used it often. Man, have I been out of the loop. EVERYONE uses this thing. And nicely it's not as cheesy and teenie bopperish as MySpace. Being married and a new mom it's hard to keep in touch with people, and I finally have a way to make a half-assed attempt at contact with the outside world.

Second new-to-me time waster is Flickr. I really enjoy photography, but due to time contraints and not having a decent camera I am currently more of a looker of photos than a producer of them. Flickr is awesome. I have a strange fetish for rainbows, and I really like looking at how they can appear in the world, and it's fun to me to look on Flickr and see what other people have discovered for me. Hopefully I will one day be able to afford a really nice camera and have the time to go out and use it so that I can really get involved in this photography thing.
