1.Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page
i'm always on a quest for knowledge. if i don't know about something that someone mentions. i look it up.

2.Bible Gateway-
http://www.biblegateway.com/
this is an online dictionary. it has multiple languages and Biblical translations. all Bible all the time! woo-hoo!

3. Merriam-Webster
http://www.merriam-webster.com/
well first of all i'm not the greatest speller and this is an online dictionary. a quick reference for words i don't know the meanings to.

4. DIY network-
http://www.diynetwork.com/
this is a homeowners best resource if they're cheap like me. this is just a site that tells you how to do different home improvement projects by yourself.

5. The FBI's freedome of information act http://foia.fbi.gov/
this one is a reading room that has every possible thing that the FBI has information on. so you can read about different agencies, organizations, people, all types of stuff!

My most visited website is brobably http://reader.google.com

Through google reader, I read:
www.engadget.com
www.gizmodo.com
www.arstechnica.com
These three are all computer/gadget related news
www.lifehacker.com - lots of tips on small ways to help organize your life and reach goals
www.xkcd.com - extremely geeky but hilarious web comic

Wikipedia and google are my favorites for finding out about stuff

www.instructables.com has instructions for tons of DIY projects

I started using Twitter recently

www.m-w.com is a shorter way to get to merriam-webster

I definitely got the Webster and wiki toolbar... I'm addicted to the wiki... It's random facts as easy as a click... Jeanius!!!

Other sites I keep bookmarked are
bodybuildin.com Which helps out dramatically wit my working out...
www.phillycypher.com Most obvious... It's how I get here...
And all Bank websites!!! ONLINE BANKING IS THE BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD... I have yet to walk back into a bank in two years...
