Advantages: They are all helpful.

Disadvantages: I spend far too much time on them.

As part of my daily routine I tend to sit on the computer and go through a list of websites starting from my favourite going right through to my worst. I'm probably not the only computer addict that does this and I find that I just can't settle until I've been through bthe lot to see what is happening on each one and whether anything has changed since I checked it just half an hour ago. I thought I'd share with you my top ten so here it goes!

1) dooyoo.co.uk
At the moment I am simply addicted to writing, rating and generally checking every five seconds to see if a comment has been made or if I have been rated back. Yes it is getting ridiculous and I probably do need councelling but this site is great. If you are looking to buy a product then I'd advise you check here and see if it's been reviewed and if you are looking to make some pocket money then I'd simply say 'Join up'.

2) facebook.co.uk
This is one of the biggest social networking sites online at the moment and again I am truly and utterly addicted. Everyday I check to see if a long lost friend has added me or if someone has written on my wall. If you want to try and hook up with old friends or make some new ones or even chat to people that have the same interest as you then go and register. You never know you may end up like me and be a self-confessed Facebook addict!

3) msn.co.uk
This lovely site is next in line. I have an email account with them and it is essential that I check this every single day just incase I get an email off my American friend (who I met on Facebook!) inamongst all of the junk mail I get! I also like to check out the news to make sure I keep up to date with whats happening in the world.

4) onepoll.co.uk
This is a survey site. I check here a couple of times a day to see if I have new surveys to complete. I've earnt about £15 so far and you can withdraw your funds when you get to £40. It's slow and the surveys can be boring but they literally take me a few minutes to complete so I can't complain.

5) lightspeedpanel.co.uk
This is another survey site. I don't like it as much as onepoll.co.uk because I tend to complete quite a few questions then they tell me that I didn't qualify for the survey I'm taking. I find that frustrating as I've just wasted five minutes filling in a load of crudge. I like the fact that they email you when you have a new survey to complete and you can withdraw your funds at any time.

6) moneysavingexpert.com
This site has been great for me and hubby in the last year. We are one month away from being debt free and although it's not entirely to do with this site, it's helped. We found dooyoo.co.uk through this site and have been informed of lots of tips on how to save. There are so many threads and topics on this site and if you're not careful you will end up sitting on there all night!

7) google.com
Not a day goes by where I don't do a search on google. If I'm not looking for some facts to put in a review then I'm reading blogs of random pregnant women who I have never met before (I love being pregnant and find the whole thing amazing! If it was up to me I'd have been pregnant again yesterday).

8) asda.co.uk
Now where would I be without this place hey? Well I don't know where I'd be but I know I'd be bloody starving! Even though I only actually do a shop every two weeks I tend to go on here to compare prices. If I get a leaflet through the door for my local Sainsburys and there is a good offer on I will check it against the products on Asda before I go and buy. Nine times out of ten Asda is cheaper.

9) wikipedia.org
Since joining dooyoo I am finding that I am constantly checking my facts by using this site. I find it really interesting and I often find that my reviews take me twice as long because I have gone off on a tangent reading about different things on here.

10)bbc.co.uk/iplayer
I usually use this site everyday. For those of you who don't know what it is, it's a site where you can watch programmes that have been shown on the BBC recently. We don't have a TV licence so I tend to put cartoons on for my son every now and again and my hubby and I watch tv programmes of an evening if something takes our fancy.

So that's my daily 'computer' life in a nutshell. Check them out!

Summary: My top ten!
