TAGS: fun, offbeat, work
 // PUBLISHED March 25, 2009

Don’t just stare at the clock all day. If you’re trying to avoid working, studying, or just looking for a way to kill time, then check out these websites. Don’t worry, most of them are quiet, so you can quickly hide them behind a spreadsheet when your boss walks by.

  • 1mental_floss
    This is the site for knowledge junkies. Read random information, participate in the ranking polls, or get utterly lost taking quizzes on any number of topics, then email your results to your friends.
  • 2Lunchtimers
    The letters game on Lunchtimers will keep you hooked. You, and whoever else is on, move letters around on a board forming words. It’s a guilty pleasure watching someone try to make a word, even as you keep taking their letters away.
  • 3click bored
    click bored is so simple, yet so addictive. You click the red and black boxes and watch them split into four more boxes. Over and over and over again.
  • 4 The World Famous Random Kitten Generator
    What is it about random pictures of kittens that perk you up so much? Even the jaded among us will have a hard time not smiling at the kittens here.
  • 5Falling Sand Game
    Anyone who has ever grabbed a handful of sand and watched it flow through her fingers will enjoy Falling Sand Game. Draw barriers to redirect the sand, catch it in a cup, or mix the colors together.
  • 6Samorost 1
    Avoid Samorost 1 at work, since you will want to hear the quirky sounds that go with the surprisingly striking graphics in this simple click-and-play game.
  • 7Funny Games
    Funny Games has over 3,500 games to keep you busy. If you have something you need to do, though, don’t start playing Splash Back.

Yes I definitely spend alot of time on the computer running my boston online marketing company. I really do like to just waste time on the computer and those are some really fun websites. I wish I could get out more often but these sites will have to keep me occupied.

Oh man, that is awesome. I especially love the random kitten generator one. I just emailed my friends who just got kittens. I have a lot of time in between clients and like to read articles on the web. The one I am reading now is -how to get amazing legs. Thanks for the list of other sites to check out - will definitely share these as well.
