60 Seconds of Startup with The Valley Girl

60 Seconds of Startup: Fun Time Killer Sites!

Pandora: If you haven’t heard of this radio gem, I would be very surprised. You can tune your own radio channel to your taste with the thumbs up and thumbs down! Stream it from your iphone, ipad, computer and do what I do, stream it from your iphone WHILE you’re in the shower so you can SING along! You know you want to…

  • CEO&Prez: Joe Kennedy

Pinterest: Pin your interests. Use a digital pinboard to keep track of all the wonderful things you find on the web. Or Pimp your interests out to your friends and check out theirs while you are at it. You might gain some inspiration for your wedding, house decor or even baked goodies…or do my favorite thing and PINKIFY! Take a look at this board I put together.

  • Co-founders: Ben Silbermann, Evan Sharp and Paul Sciarra

Best of Craigslist: This is where craigslist users vote to decide upon their favorite Craigslist listings…take a look, they are good for a laugh. They are often chosen for their double meanings typically in the inappropriate category.

  • Run by Craigslist: CEO of Craigslist is Jim Buckmaster

Lifehacker: A super fun, geeky, tech site. Right up my alley! Their articles are all about tech and new electronics and I always feel like I get some great take-home facts.

  • Editor-in-Chief: Adam Hash

The Onion: Satirical news that will make you laugh and/or laugh harder, but it is very cleverly executed and you might actually learn something while reading this site!

  • Founders: Tim Keck and Christopher Johnson

Uncyclopaedia: They call themselves an “encyclopedia of misinformation and utter lies”. They are the complete opposite of Wikipedia plus sarcasm and ridiculousness. Look something up and you will learn nonsense!

  • Run by Wikia/Wikipedia: CEO: Jimmy Wales
