The sites I waste the most time on would probably be Tumblr, Twitter, YouTube and Wikipedia. Also a special mention to TVTropes - I don't go there that often, but when I do I stay for hours and end up with 30 tabs open waiting to be read :P.
These have a lot of the features you mentioned - they link to other pages, include recomendations, and Tumblr and Twitter have endless scrolling and live updates to the page, which get me hooked for hours.

One of the things that frustrates me most is that webcomic archives take a long time to read, so loading a page for every comic takes even longer. I usually end up writing a script to download all the comics, which means I can read them when I don't have internet access in a viewer that I like. This takes more effort, though, so I only bother if I *really* like the comic straight away. An easier way to download or view archives would be nice.

Another minor irritation with webcomics that include alt-text is that I can't read them on my mobile or I miss out on the alt-text. Most webcomics don't seem to have mobile-specific sites, so I guess they haven't really considered this problem.

I like that MSPA saves your position in the comic, so you can close the page without having to remember where you were.

I think I'm all out of discussion now :P.

Hehehehe, I remember this story.
I assume you realise where the teacher got the inspiration for this?
And which teacher was it? I thought that Ms B taught you for this topic... It was Ms C when I did it :).
The story is really good :D.

1. I am sure it will, although I'm not sure about the music bit...
2. Yeah, sounds about right.
3. OMG YES :D. I am very excited about that. I think the media room needs some :P. Apple just registered the domain name "iSlate.com".
4. I don't know. Probably not in the next year, and hopefully never if it relies on current cloud technology... I don't like the idea of handing all my data over to a third party. What I would like to see is remote/local storage - you have all your data locally, but can access it remotely over the net - then you keep control of your data, but can take it with you wherever you go.
5. Maybe, but probably not in the next year...

I really meant that Calibri is yay, and copy/pasting from Word causes it.
