What are your favorite Web sites?

A quick rundown of a few random sites that I’ve been entertained by this week. These aren’t my favorites, but a few of them could be if they keep it up. Where do you like to surf to?

THE “BLOG” OF “UNNECESSARY” QUOTATION MARKS. This one is pretty self explanatory. A visual and very entertaining blog.

Graphic charts of your favorite songs. Again, self explanatory. Perfect if you love music and love to chart and diagram.

Cool furniture made from cardboard. It sounds crazy, but it’s true. Check out this gallery of 10 pieces of green furniture made from cardboard. I don’t know about you, but I could see rocking one of these in my house.

The Ministry of Rum: Can’t recommend the entire site, but this link to an interesting tidbit about the U.S.S. Constitution (a combat vessel sailing around 1798) is an entertaining read for Lounge Lizards out there. Seems the crew drank more rum than did anything else. Not surprising, but the numbers it sites in gallons are pretty staggering.

Passive-agressive notes: Hostile writing from shared spaces the world over … there are several times I’ve laughed out loud reading this blog. Worth a visit for sure …

And to round out today’s World Wide Web adventures, a photo collection of airborne cats on Flickr

So where are your favorite Web sites? Any fun places to visit or fond favorites worth sharing? Share here!
