Thanks for the suggestions so far.

One quick note: I like to listen to my ipod and I use my computer speakers to do it so stuff that doesn't require sound would be preferred but is by no means required. Stuff like TED talks is usually interesting enough I odn't mind skipping the music.

4chan lite, but 4chan nonetheless.

Great site to watch documentaries on a High Quality video player. Mainstream Documentaries and Indie Activist videos are both available.

Depends which section you go to, although the most interesting (and disturbing) is nsfw. I second stumbleupon as well, great time waster.

Most of this stuff is easily found with Google. Making the links would take me too long.

90% of this stuff is directly from my feed reader, which is the easiest way to follow it all.

Honestly Netflix for a couple months and watch everything you want to.. then cancel

Wallbase.net
XKCD
Cyanide and Happiness
Dilbert (and Scott Adams Blog)
PostSecret
Lifehacker
Daily DIY
INstructables

passiveagressivenotes.com
Ruminations.com

It has been a couple years since I have been there but there is probably one of those sections that is safe for work... Might be like Russian roulette to find it though.

Go to Wikipedia, click random article and read it. If it interests you start clicking the links. If not, hit random article and repeat. You will be a trivia master in no time.
