My Top 3 Websites

My Top 3 Websites.

~
Okay, so I'm new to the whole blogging thing and I don't really have a theme to follow as my idea is to post about something new each week. So I decided to start with something that is close to all our hearts (especially mine!), the internet. I'm going to talk about my 3 favourite websites I visit everyday and that I couldn't live without.

1. YouTube 
Of course, my number 1 website just had to be YouTube. I could literally spend all day on it if I had the chance. I along with MANY other people find it so easy to just go on with the intention to watch a few videos to fill up a spare 30 mins and then 4 hours later find myself still on there engrossed in something that will add no benefit to my life. But that's why I love it! I'm not the sort of person who goes on and watches anything however, I have my list of subscriptions who I watch religiously and become so engrossed in their lives that I just want to be them:// I love going onto YouTube to find someone has uploaded a new video to watch and I love finding new people who create amazing videos. People I'm subscribed to include: Tyler OakleySawyer Hartman,  Tanya BurrPointlessBlogCrabStickz, Connor FrantaJim ChapmanAmazingPhilJoey GraceffaZoellaThatcherJoeDicaspSprinkle of Glitter. (Sorry that was such a list, I found it hard to only pick a few:P) 

And I'm always open to new suggestions, so if you have any please leave a comment^.^

2. Tumblr
Next up its Tumblr. Because what is life without funny photos of your favourite people/ things? Whats amazing about Tumblr is that unlike Facebook you don't have to become 'friends' with someone to see what they're posting, meaning you can follow absolutely anyone who has the same interests as you or posts interesting things that you like. Of course there are downsides to this like weird ass stalkery people, but as long as you use the site safely there is nothing to worry about:) 
There is also something for everyone on Tumblr, no matter what fandom you're part of, whether it be Harry Potter (!!!) or One Direction, or if you just like to look at beautiful or funny pictures, there will always be a blog to follow and a picture to like. You don't have to show everyone your real identity either as you can just call your blog whatever you like, meaning if you like to blog about things but don't want other people you know to find about it you have nothing to worry about, yaaay.
You can add text, photos, your favourite quotes, links, videos and audio-files  plus you  can chat to absolutely anybody!  It is literally the social networking site that incorporates all other social networking sites, making it THE BEST! 

3. Sporcle
Now most people probably wont have heard of this website but in my opinion it is one of the best things out there. On sporcle there are thousands of quizzes which can keep you entertained for hours. There are quizzes on literally anything you can think of, and better still you can create your own account to challenge strangers and friends to beat your score on a quiz and you can even have a go at making your own quiz for people all around the world to have a go at. 
The quizzes fall under different categories to make it easier to find a quiz suited for you. The categories are: Sports, Geography, Music, Movies, Television, Just for Fun, Miscellaneous, History, Literature, Language, Science, Gaming, Entertainment, Religion and Holiday, (Like I said there is definitely something for everyone!). 
I even had a go a making my own quizzes online (such a cool kid) which you can have a go at here:

Harry Potter Quiz- http://www.sporcle.com/games/FloreanFortescue/harry-potter-passwords-
Chocolate Bar Quiz- http://www.sporcle.com/games/FloreanFortescue/chocolate-brands
If you find quizzes you really really like you can share them on Facebook, Twitter, etc so all your friends can have a go too.

So that's it, first blog over. If you liked this please comment and if you have any suggestions for another blog please also comment with your ideas:) I plan to do something a little different each time and then revisit some ideas. Also I'm not really sure how long to make my blogs because I usually like long blogs, but if this was too long or way too short just say and I'll change it next time. Okay, ramble over, see you on Thursday for my next installment!
