4.0 out of 5 stars Never Be Bored Again!, 24 Dec 2008

By	Sally Makaruk "sallymak" (Wales, UK) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a brilliant book ideal for procrastinating! It suggests a HUGE range of websites to visit and online videos to watch when you really should be doing something more important. You can find sites that allow you to blow up fellow jelly babies in a battle to your confectionery grave, watch drunk people falling over or even watch sand fall from the top to the bottom of your screen.

Whichever you decide to do, this book will keep you amused for hours.

Sure, I could find some of these things on the internet myself, and have previously seen a few, but I like how the book brings the amusement of the internet together in this little guide.

Overall, it's a light-hearted guide to avoiding boredom that I really enjoyed.
