Guys/Gals, which web sites do you usually spend time at? I mean, not counting in news sites of any other kind of non-interactive website. I'm interested in your places of choice to socialize or discuss topics you'd like to discuss. Please list English resources, among the others, first.

Mine at the moment are:
http://orbiter-forum.com/ - spending lots of time here, but honestly, have little to say on Orbiter itself most of the time. A little bit strange obsession of kinds.
http://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php - mostly keeping silent there, using it to check out space news
http://www.livejournal.com - keeping a small native language blog there, reading friends' posts and communities
http://www.novosti-kosmonavtiki.ru - essentailly for the same purpose as the nasaspacesflight, but different language
http://forum.sukhoi.ru/ - to read any aviation news and many off-topical topics

I have a routine I follow when I first get on the internet:
Orbiter-Forum
Railpictures
Gateworld
SGCSim Forums
Discuss.Amtraktains
Talkweather
CNN
WSBtv
Local paper
Digg
(if M,W,F) XKCD
Cyanide and Happiness comic
(if M,W,F) ctrl-alt-del comic

Then I usually circulate around the first four forums during the day.

The only socialising websites I use are:

Here.
Facebook.
PPrune.org (Simonpro is not my usename there).



Here my participation is in the offtopic discussions here as it's such a multinational website, it's very interesting to hear how opinions and ideas change between countries and regions. I use facebook just to keep in contact with friends, and it probably wastes way too much of my life ;)
I use pprune as it's just generally interesting, I normally keep quite quiet though. I also check the nasaspaceflight forums once or twice a week, but I generally find them to be uninformative and unfriendly.

Use a translator for Novosti Kosmonavtiki forum, but don't post (wish they had a section for English speakers!)

Suzy, according to the new rules of that forum published just recently, you can post your questions in topics in languages other than Russian (this is not prohibited anymore), but you must weigh your ability to understand a response, as long as users aren't obliged to reply in the same language the question was asked.

I'm looking for a way to push the idea of creating an English sub-forum through.

The first site I enter is Google, because it is my front page. This is followed by Wikipedia and...

http://www.airbus.com/en/
http://www.airliners.net/
http://www.flightlevel350.com/
http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/home/index.html
http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/constellation/ares/index.html
http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/
http://www.space-shuttle-mission.com/
http://orbit.medphys.ucl.ac.uk/sites.html
http://www.ibiblio.org/mscorbit/mscforum/

And, well, of course I should not post my favourite... porn sites here... :lol:

For news I daily visit a German site of the public television. I don't have a TV anymore for years because I'm not interested in about 98% of todays tawdry misleading TV trash and so I boycott commercial television programs anyway.

Totse.com, until it was closed down and most of the users migrated.

A car website I've been a member of since I was 16.

Used to post at facepunch.com until the umpteenth time I was banned because the administrator was on the rag or something.
