Working at a desk in front of a computer 9 hours a day has made me become somewhat of a virtual geek. So much so, that nowadays i can find almost anything to entertain me from when i step in the office in the morning, until i shut down to leave at the end of the day. Here are a few of the stuff i do on a day to day basis :
Email & Msn
Of course the most basic that even the worst caveman would know hwo to use. I still prefer msn comapred to skype coz most of us asians havent converted over yet. Hence it's better to use something everyone else is one. And btw, i used to HATE forwaded mail coz i was to lazy to read them, but now i love it! It gives me something to do. haha
Facebook
The major craze right now, and my greatest source of entertainment. I always check what ppl have sent me, status updates and new photo's that fren's have uploaded. Then i check my wall and notifications, and see if there are any good stuff worth commenting on. Then comes the fun part, i check on my Cafe World, Farmville, Home Inn and Fishville. Yes, i have a restaurant, farm, hotel and aquarium all at my fingertips. Noreen think's i'm mad and can't be bothered to try but she's really nice coz when she see's me playing she'll answer the phonecalls. Hahs.
Blogs
Lots of blogs i've come across are really bad, i feel mainly coz of the english. Sometimes you really can't understand what the person is typing. There are a few good blogs that are worth reading and i check them daily.
Twitter
Something new and big in Europe and the US, twitter is also a social networking site that lets you send 140 character updates. What makes it slightly different is you can add famous people like Ashton Kutcher and Ryan Seacrest and see what they're doing. It as an authentic website and usually hollywood stars have their accounts verified so people know it's really them.
Neopets
Ok i know this is stupid and childish but when i get really bored, i log on to this. Its actually a kids site that lets you keep free online pets. They're not your usual cats and dogs but sort off different creatures. You can play games to earn coins, then you can buy food to feed them, buy books for them and lots of other stuff. Its really kiddish but it kills time.
Youtube
Love watching clips of the British Xfactor and America's got talent online. Only downside is the video's take quite some time to buffer, and i can only watch them in the afternoon after my boss has left. Otherwise, i wouldnt be able to hear anyone approaching behind me. Haha
So that's whati usually do everyday, and Noreen will tell you sometimes my online game playing will get out of hand. But if you work in this company that i'm working with, you'll understand. ;)
