Grooveshark
Hookah-Shisha (not appropriate for minors; tobacco related subject)
eBay
University of Northern Iowa Computer Science department site

That pretty much sums up all of the sites that I've been going to lately. Hookah-Shisha, YouTube, and Grooveshark are great for getting the party started. eBay and the CS department sites are where I take care of my other business. Aside from these sites, I'm not on the net very much since classes started back up.

A couple of sites that can't be mentioned here.

I compulsively check most of those websites at least 50-100 times a day.

Nix to groove shark until they come up with a way to pay the artists for the music they are stealing for you.

Never ceases to amaze me how many "musicians" flip their middle finger to the artists they claim are their heroes by frequenting sites like grooveshark and piratebay.

Just because they haven't figured out a way to enforce the copyrights does not mean it isn't stealing.
