My Most Freqent Sites (Writer's Workshop)

Spunky Doodle and Karen at Computer Oct. 2006

There were basically only three websites I frequented when I first got a home computer back in 2006. Two I still use, but only one regularly anymore. Here they are:

Pogo.com
This is a game site where you can play for free or become a member to have access to more games and bigger prizes. I never won anything on there yet but enjoy playing a variety of games. I also like learning some new games by playing against robots or chatting with the people I play with. I still go on once in awhile, but no where near as often as I used to. This was my favorite site and even bought a t-shirt with "POGO" on the the front. (This was my favorite for a long time.)

Viewbug.com
This is a site where you can load pictures and look at everyone else's too. You can leave comments and enter photography contests. I loaded some pictures but not a whole lot and soon lost interest in it. I found it to be hard to navigate and I never really figured out exactly how everything worked.

Shelfari.com
I loved this site because I liked that I could keep track of all the books I read and liked that it displayed pictures of the covers on a shelf. When I first found this site, I also actively participated in discussion forums but don't do that so much anymore. I do still add books as I finish them (742) and also add my husband's books for him too. You can find friends on there and share book recommendations with other readers if you wish.

So, there you have it. These three sites used to keep me pretty busy.  I did not start blogging until fall of 2007.

I am using Mama Kat's Writing Workshop prompt: When you first discovered the internet, what sites did you frequent most?  Follow the link to join in.  I also used the prompt:  "Describe a talent or flaw that seems to be in your genes" on My Funny Dad, Harry blog.

Great Site For Pet Owners--Join Zoo Too

Gerard (my husband) was the first one to tell me about this site. I looked at it briefly with him one day. It had a video of an angry cat that didn't want to be pet and also a video of a animal shelter that won a makeover from a contest on Zoo Too.

After reading a post about it on "The Creative Nerd" blog, I went to sign up. You can list all your pets with pictures, stories, videos, and tell what products they like and don't like. It's fairly easy too and the uploading goes quickly, I thought. I am anxious to go and post more, but the best thing about posting there is that animal shelters benefit.

I have posted my cats: Mr. Moe (R.I.P.), Spunky Doodle and Manny. It's a community of pet lovers who all view these furry creatures as a part of their family. I'm sure I'll be spending more time there. Be sure to check it out at http://www.zootoo.com/. Feel free to add me as a friend using spunkydoodle@sbcglobal.net for my email.
