Recommend any nonpr0n related sites you go to.

I'll start with these two:

http://zeitgeistmovie.com/
It's basicly just one two hour conspiracy theory movie but an entertaining one.

Angry nintendo nerd. Yes some of his reviews are pretty boring but he has his moments.

Ok, so anything goes, other forums, Keeker's highlysuperintelligentnano-stuff, blogs, guitar stuff, just anything to kill time with.

There's a flash game out there called The Helicopter Game. Try it, I can guarantee you won't sleep tonight.

Only browse about 3 websites and when nothing's happening on those, I play solitaire while listening to my itunes...

Or aimlessly browse youtube

Same, only Winamp. And there's usually a glass of wine involved. Then I'm just singing along with all the songs, not browsing anything. I have a horrible attention span.

Ditto, that's why YouTube is perfect, 30 second clips of absolute silliness!

I think I'm on there somewhere actually... Running into the sea Baywatch style I seem to remember.

I usually go to this site to check out the commercials from my childhood. It's kinda of crazy when you see one that was 15 years old and thought you had seen it last Saturday morning.

It's also got movie trailers from the 80's and 90's.

http://www.b3ta.com for all kinds of digital silliness, freaky art and assorted madness (love British humour).

http://blog.modernmechanix.com is excellent, has lots of scans from old "Popular Mechanics" and similiar mags, with sometimes very witty comments of site visitors. Nice to read news about this crazy new IBM 5 MB harddisks (1956, rather portable stuff, should fit in medium size transport plane).

and my new discovery:

http://www.shorpy.com

Frequently updated gallery of old American photos (some of them are glass plate photos from american civil war). And not typical shitty, postage stamp size pics, but beautiful, large, sometimes incredibly detailed scans. Color photos from 40s are stunning. It's like I have 17" window to the past. Not my country past, but I gotta get what they give :)

And youtube, digg and few local usenet groups among others.

World's Tallest Skyscrapers

I tried to locate as many as I could on GoogleEarth. You know, if you find that sort of stuff interesting...which I do. :) Of course, GoogleEarth isn't updated enough to keep up with all of them. Taipei 101 was still under construction last time I looked.
