Here’s a list of some great finds on the internet that are just interesting to observe, read, and play with. What’s great about the internet these days are sites like these! Take a look at these great links by using StumbleUpon.

Use www.stumbleupon.com as your destination for anti-boredom. One click on “Stumble” and you are endlessly entertained for hours. Here are just 10 examples of amusing websites that can be found on StumbleUpon.
www.youtube.recopylator.com// is a great link for those that are tech-savvy. Click here, search for your favorite youtube videos, and then download them to your computer. Not so savvy with the downloads? No problem- take a different approach to attacking boredom by using the next link.
www.dornob.com/wonderful-wine-cellars-for-any-room-in-your-house//. Click here to see some really cool wine-cellars built into spiral staircases. If you’re not a trendy person and are more into gaming, try the next link.
www.pixeljam.com/dinorun// is that classic game you played before. So why not jam your fingers again with this link that leads to the game “Dino Run.”
www.paulspond.com/index.php?entry=42/ is a funny blog, and on this particular page, he discusses really odd and funny google trends. Take a look for yourself.
May I suggest looking at what the future will hold on an interplanetary level? Try this link: http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#1Ge2e3/content.ytmnd.com/content/a/0/8/a0812774c98903448246c7e213bc1fea.gif/ and watch a video on that said subject matter.
Perhaps you’re not a big science junkie but a food junkie instead. I would suggest www.copykat.com, one of the leading websites in bringing you famous imitation recipes from your favorite restaurants. Finally you can make your favorite eat-out food in the comfort of your own home!
If you are the music type, there is a specific website for you, too! www.mixturtle.com is the perfect music search engine designed specifically to find music of all kinds. And with a specialty in music, you will probably have better luck searching.
Here is something really neat: http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#46FjF1/sixdegrees.hu/last.fm/interactive_map.html/. It is an interactive “map” that details how popular a music artist is and how often they are listened to. Try it out- it’s a really neat find.
For all the music whizzes, there are always literary enthusiasts out there. If you haven’t already heard of it, I encourage you to use www.manybooks.net. It’s a great source that offers free eBooks for iPhones, PDAs, and eBook readers. They have “many books” so shop away!
And finally, for the art geeks and those who just want something to look at, check the art deco works of Michael Murphy at http://www.stumbleupon.com/s/#2j6IV9/mmike.com/drawings.html/. His pieces are interesting and they grab you. I am confident you will enjoy his work.
I hope my list has gotten to all diverse personalities of boredom! Enjoy and feel free to comment after using to websites. Suggestions are welcome!

A bit scary about the sun, i always thought it would burn up and life would die without the heat and the suns light.Then we would all freeze to death. Interesting if its based on facts.
