Have you tried StumbleUpon? Is it as big a time waster as Answers?

Update:

I mean that in a good way. I am addicted to Answers, but don't appreciate some of the reigning attitudes, so take a break now and then. Geez

Update 2:

StumbleUpon is an ad-on tool bar that lets you browse PBS, YouTube, cooking & how-to videos, crafts, gardening, jokes, photography, etc. all with one clic. I'm just saying that Senior Answers CAN get to be silly and/or "nostalgic" at times, especially when looking for more serious answers. Just a way to take a break now and then and gain a different perspective.

    Yes, and yes ! Stumbleupon is always interesting, and it has put me on to sites that I never would have viewed otherwise. To anyone interested, you just type in stumbleupon dot com , sign on and then enter your interests. It then sends you sites that might interest you. If you don't like a particular site, you just say so and they cease sending you things of that nature. It really is addictive !

    Could you give a link to "StumbleUpon" Looked at the website but I have to say....not sure if I got the same site as you are referring to. (?)

    Agreed -- Y!A happens to be extremely boring at times and a "time waster" to me too but.........many new/interesting people join on a daily basis.

    I never heard of it until now. If Yahoo Q's & A's is a big time waster, then why, may I ask, are you here today on this site? <curious>

    edit: Please re read your question! Wording of a question is everything. Now, why do you think some answered as they did? My answer was not meant to be sarcastic. I was just curious as to why you're still here.

    This is as much as I can handle right now. Might check it out this winter when I'm snowed or iced in!!!

    I looked at it, kind of too spaced out or something. Did not like it at all.

    Have you tried meetup.com

    Yes, for awhile I did use Firefox where I found it. It was innovative and fun.

    If Answers is so wasteful, why are you here?
