Browser alphabet meme
Snagged from many, many friends. Type a letter in your browser's address bar, and share where it suggests for you. Rules include: Embarrassing yourself, totally cool; violating someone else's privacy, not cool.
a: http://azurelunatic.dreamwidth.org/ - oh hey, home.

f: http://facebook.com - sadly

h: my journal again
i: http://www.dreamwidth.org/editpics - er, that redirects to editicons, now.
j: http://james-nicoll.livejournal.com/ - second is http://wiki.dwscoalition.org/notes/Common_Jargon
k: first is a Russian serial adder on LJ, second is a locked entry. Third is Google Calendar again.
l: http://www.listentoyoutube.com/index.php - which is good because the second one is porn.
m: http://maps.google.com/ - I keep myself out of trouble when I look at the map before I try to go there.
n: http://www.nanowrimo.org/ - late my obsession.
o: http://www.online-stopwatch.com/ - goes with the above, very helpful when timing word wars with fish.

y: http://youtube.com/ - much timewasting!
z: http://zuckonit.livejournal.com/738.html - well damn, the journal's deleted! That was a "How did you like the movie?" entry, after the journal name was briefly mentioned in The Social Network. There was a bit of a conversation in the comments there.

2013:
b: http://bugs.dwscoalition.org -- yep, more time on DW than gaming
c: http://cardsagainsthumanity.com -- heh
d: http://dw-suggestions.dreamwidth.org -- yep, suggestions!
e: http://elanya.dreamwidth.org -- new friend from #yuletide
f: http://facebook.com/TheSimsSocial?filter=1 -- at least the quality of my interaction with facebook has gone up
g: http://goodreads.com/review/show/508144862 -- not google, because I use the browser bar for that, as I swapped to Chrome a while back -- this is the scathing review of Life of Pi that I had to look back up a few times.
h: http://homedepot.com -- it strikes me that this may be recent rather than frequent, because the other h selections, a Hiveminder search and a Dreamhack code tour link, are a little more frequent but less recent.
i: http://ifttt.com -- helpful life automation bits
j: http://jamoche.dreamwidth.org -- who has many helpful thoughts on inbox-snakes
k: https://www.facebook.com/TheSimsSocial?filter=1 -- Sims again
l: http://ladyasul.dreamwidth.org/icons -- first result is redacted for everyone's good; this is the second result (icons of an IRC buddy)
m: http://maps.google.com -- same.
n: http://notalwaysright.com
o: http://oglaf.com -- nsfw! hilarious!
p: http://pastebin.com
q: http://qdb.dreamwidth.net
r: http://reader.google.com -- same thing, different place
s: http://sprint.com -- first result again redacted for everyone's good, yay phones
t: http://translate.google.com -- less specific this time
u: http://usps.com -- I mail things much more often now
v: http://verity.dreamwidth.org -- first result yet again redacted, and 2nd result a friend
w: http://wiki.dwscoalition.org -- beating out *all* www results, I am still GOING TO THE WIKI
x: http://x-files.wikia.com -- beating both Mark and porn (actually I didn't see either in the first five dropdown)
y: http://youtube.com
z: http://zoethe.livejournal.com -- first result, fourth redaction; this is the 2nd result.
Bonus: numbers:
0: www.dreamwidth.org/admin/spamreports?mode=tlast10 -- spamwhacking!!
1: 192.168.0.1 -- router
2: router
3: sims -- "3" in page name, this being in the number of unread alerts
4: bejeweled -- "4" in page name, again with the unread facebook alerts
5: sims -- as above
6: DW Bugzilla "processed" page -- "6" in bug number
7: ditto
8: router
9: talkpost_do -- "9" was in the entry title (39 tweets)
All redactions were in fact related to paperwork-type privacy, rather than personal embarrassment-type privacy: stuff like work-related and family-name-involved, rather than porn.
