Just in case you have too much time on your hands like I do (NOT!), here are some things to keep you busy. Most of these sites can be useful in the right context, but I find I can easily get consumed with them and spend entirely too much time on them.
1. http://www.youtube.com/ (Watch videos of almost anything in the world.)
2. http://www.facebook.com/ (I have found a good percentage of everybody I have known in every phase of my life on here. You must set up an account (free) to use this.)
3. http://www.allrecipes.com/ (Find almost any recipe you could ever want.)
4. http://www.amazon.com/ (Order almost anything you can dream of at very reasonable prices.)
5. http://www.rhapsody.com/ (Listen to all your favorite music (free in limited quantities).)
6. http://hobsvtxie01.nashville.org/Default.asp?br=exp&vr=6 (If you like to snoop, you can find out the value of anybody’s house in Davidson County. If you don’t live in Nashville, your city probably has an equivalent site.)
7. http://www.ebay.com/ (If it’s not on Amazon, it’s almost certainly here, or you may be able to get an even better deal on it here.)
8. http://www.biblegateway.com/ (Find any scripture by reference or key word. More Bible translations than you probably knew existed, including a number of foreign languages.)
9. http://www.wikipedia.org/ (An up-to-the-minute encyclopedia that covers just about every topic in the universe.)
10. http://www.maps.google.com/ (Another good site for snoopers (which is a nice word for "stalkers"). Click on "Satellite" to get an aerial view of anybody’s neighborhood, or zoom in to see their house.)

You are funny with the "snoooping" thing. :-) I use all (except Facebook, now) of these sites at different times and am so thankful for them. However, you're right - they are time stealers! :-)
Sometimes I have to fast my computer or it can steal time away from my family and God. However, I am also glad to have information at my fingertips. Also, I keep in touch with people better.
