Home alone today so varying amounts of online usage.

listened to a podcast on my early morning trek to obtain caffeine

Watched videos from my subscription feed on youtube

Scrolled my twitter feed

listened to an album on youtube as I washed the dishes

Looked on Soundcloud for copyright free music (didn’t find what I needed)

Looked on Newgrounds for copyright free music (didn’t find what I was looking for there either)

Found a playlist on Youtube dedicated to copyright free music (found what I was looking for) and downloaded the song for a project I was working on for school.

Streamed the latest episode of Samurai Jack from a dubious website since it hasn’t been released in Australia yet and I’m not sure when it will be.

Used facebook messenger to talk to my friend in Ballarat

listened to a podcast while playing a game in the evening

 

Again, didn’t feel the need to publish any of the goings on in my day to the world or my friends. Nothing I did was that interesting so nothing qualified as interesting enough to post.

At this point, I’m starting to realise that Youtube is the main site I use online. I not only use it for entertainment but like a secondary search engine for educational and creative purposes. Most of the time if I can’t find something I’m looking for on google I will search Youtube, and lots of times google will direct me to Youtube for an answer anyway.

Like most of the days prior to this one, most of my online usage has been for entertainment, either something that I will direct my focus on entirely or something to fill in space in the background as I do other things. I feel like I do this for efficiency, that now I have this idea that if I’m not taking advantage of the fact that I can listen to something as I do something else like clean or ride the tram that I am wasting that time.
