sites to make the work day fly by

[EmergingAlbert]

Just looking for some good sites to help me pass the work day by. I usually just skim these forums, but sometimes I run out of threads, and the highly intellectual material isn't that ideal because I work in a call center and can't really read a long, intellectual article without getting interrupted by a phone call every ten seconds. Can anyone suggest some nice time-killing, safe-for-work Web pages that can help the day fly by a bit faster?

Because jizzing all over your cubicle isn't necessarily the best way to keep your job...

podcast always help me, some of my favorite:
Freakanomics
NPR ted radio hour
NPR planet money
Infinite Monkey Cage

if you are into tech and entrepreneurship try Hacker news
http://news.ycombinator.com/news

then there is always reddit
there is also Pinterest

Lots of interesting information on HowStuffWorks.com
http://www.howstuffworks.com/

try using google+, follow alot of people that talk about things you are interested in. You will get plenty of posts leading to articles, pictures, discussions, etc.

also about that facebook block thing, try this.

I usually listen to:

NPR On-Point
This American Life

Get in two or three 1 hour shows and the day goes by fast.

you don't say what kind of content you want but im going to suggest "reddit.com".

on that site there are "subreddits" for every topic imaginable (it's not just whatever is on the top bar, there are much more than that) but some "quick" material, check out http://www.reddit.com/r/pics/ and http://www.reddit.com/r/funny/.

and there's also http://9gag.com/


enjoy!

Portable Puzzle Collection
Good for a bit of on-the-fly stimulation. The trick is to quickly move on to new puzzle types once you've figured out the last.

And Kingdom of Loathing is somewhat amusing, I suppose.
