I don't have any to share, myself. I really only check here, one other kid related forum and a few news sites that are too boring to mention!
 
Facebook, Etsy, Amazon, The New Yorker, The Atlantic, Talking Points Memo, Andrew Sullivan, other news places but mostly from links.
 
NPR, Little Green Notebook, and some of the PS vendors!
 
Facebook, pinterest, this site, a vintage travel trailer forum, ebay, a local and online auction site, a hiking and camping forum for my favorite area and the college website I am taking some online classes at. I also do much of my shopping online and often check different retail sites and some gem sellers to see the latest listings. Sounds like I spend all my time on the computer when you list it like that :oops:
 
The Onion, Hooked on Houses dot net, which is great for people that love to poke around in cottages and mansions, all the gem dealers.
 
I am on facebook alot and I try to check out Twitter every day but not too many others....
 
Here, FB, etsy, pinterest, imdb.
 
Jezebel (love), Pinterest, Etsy, FB, many news sites, and a pregnancy/baby forum.
 
Reddit. It's very...illuminating. Sometimes in a very bad way, other times not so much. :read:
 
Etsy, Ebay, Amazon, Gilt Groupe, Rue La La,and Outnet
 
Forgot about Pinterest and FB! But not everyday. I do check mint everyday.
 
The jewellery threads on TPF - especially Cartier and VCA. The majority of posters seem to have different priorities than the collective PS populace - branding generally trumps all else - but there are some collectors who have been learning about their favourite houses for years and years and there's an incredible wealth of knowledge there.

I do think PSers can be needlessly disdainful of branding and it's refreshing to read about different lines and pieces from the perspective of people who know about and appreciate their histories.
 
A camping related forum board, as well as a pearl related board.

Also Meetup for upcoming events for the groups I belong to.

DK :))
 
Yssie, what's TPF?
 
Facebook, Yahoo Finance, Fidelity Investments, Merrill Lynch, Franklin Templeton Investments, Cruise Critic, Club Lexus, (lately Crafted By Infinity and High Performance Diamonds), and the National Weather Service.
 
Thought of another one-Zulily. Not every day, but every other I suppose.

The purse forum!
I don't think I can link it, but if you google "the purse forum" it'll be the first URL ::)
 
OMG that just registered - iota!! It's good to see you back! :bigsmile:

Same, I appreciate the knowledge they have for that. I pretty much spend all my TPF time in that section. We do have some crossover between here and there.

Besides there I spend time on a few other luxury sites, and a lot of tech sites. And I read a ton of "lifestyle blogs."

oh lol, I totally didn't even think of IMDB or Wikipedia. Really, the website I'm on most besides here is definitely Wikipedia.

For me it all depends on the piece. What MOST people are looking for here though is engagement rings and I feel like the engagement rings are overpriced enough at most big brands without being unique enough to make them worth it. But most non-basic things and wedding bands at big brands, I am totally fine with. And actively want.

I've never been to TPF except when I was finding it through authenticating-luxury-pieces things, but maybe I should pop over. I'm just not all that into purses so the name makes me feel like I wouldn't like it, lol.
 
I lurk a bit at TPF just to read the jewelry and watch threads. Daily I'm on here, Pinterest, many of the PS vendors, FB, Houzz, realtor.com, Kiplingers, Forbes. Nordstrom & Zappos for shopping. And my banking every day.
 
Reddit, the usual gem sites, and I am newly into City-Data, as we are considering a move. I go on TPF when I need a dose of completely out of my budget ever eye candy.
 
I never miss my burro buddies: http://www.the7msnranch.com/
Also hit the Drudge report unless I'm tired of being depressed so early in the morning, lol. PS vendors. Royal Jewels forum. Frequent stops at Sothebys & Christies to see what's up. A couple of vintage-house blogs because I love old houses. And I love this site for its varied info on all sorts of interesting subjects: http://godsandfoolishgrandeur.blogspot.com/
 
I go to CNN at work to catch up on world events. I find that I don't usually go to specific sites and much as I search specific themes. What I mean is lately I've been really into rose cut diamonds, so I google rose cut diamonds and look at related images/read articles. I do the same for furniture, vacations, etc. So I'm more into browsing themes than specific sites. Hope that makes some sense :whistle:
