A lot of bloggers I follow take part in Top 10 Tuesday (which is hosted by The Broke and the Bookish) and frequently I read the posts after Tuesday and wish I was around on Tuesday to actually take part! (Tuesday is my sign class day which makes writing posts difficult) For ages I have been meaning to look at their list of topics so I can actually take part by writing a post in advance (something I rarely do). So this is my first Top 10 Tuesdays post and the topic is….
Top Ten Blogs/Sites You Read That AREN’T about Books:
1) Failbook- this site posts funny social media site items (mainly facebook statuses) and I am totally addicted, seriously I can read it for a whole evening.
2) Postsecret- does what it says, posts secrets, on postcards. Some funny, some moving.
3) Mimi and Eunice- cute and funny cartoons
4) Facebook- not 4th because I love it but because I spend so much time there…
5) Twitter- see facebook!
6) The Guardian- okay so this cheats a bit as I tend to read articles on books…but I occasionally go outside that sphere when I see something interesting
7) Dear Dave and Nick- letters to the Prime minister and his lapdog (err I mean Deputy….) about what is going on. With great decoration!
8) Thx, Thx, Thx- a thank you note every day about little things and bigger things
9) XKCD- funny, sarcastic, sometimes complex, comics
10) WordPress Freshly Pressed- Each day that I visit wordpress I have a quick look to see what blog posts are being featured, and sometimes I read them.
I love going and finding awful statuses. Sometimes they’re great, other times it makes me cringe.
Fun list.

This post is interesting ! Thank you.. I’ve discovered new things. I love Failbook site! Hahah
I like lots of things on fail blog, but failbook is my favourite!
Yeah, they sometimes make me cringe too…but usually they are just funny.
Thanks a lot. I just wasted twenty minutes looking at Failbook. Freaking hilarious!
I know right! Some other bits of failblog are funny too, but failbook is my favourite section
I’ve seen a few of these lists around and am discovering some fascinating new sites. But I can’t believe no-one has listed Letters of Note! That’s a really good one, for the record.
I haven’t heard of that one. I will have to look it up
