Curious where everybody spends their time online and why. It can tell you a lot about a person's personality.

Even though I've been a member here for a while, I'm not really that active on these boards. I love Macs, (mostly OS X) so that explains my presence here, but most of my time is spent on overclockers.com and tonymacx86.com. It shows that I'm passionate about performance computing and love to give back to the hackintosh community that has given me so much.

Another spot would be head-fi.org as I'm quite an audiophile. :D Very expensive habit indeed.

So let's here it, what forums get graced by your presence the most?
 
MacRumors
Driveaccord.net
BlueGoldNews.com
BassResource.com
GolfWRX.com
avsForum.com
 
Other than here I frequent the following places:

www.mac-forums.com - obvious :)

www.flame-wars.co.uk/forum - My own forum for having a laugh with friends, although anyone is free to sign up for a bit of banter and to freely discuss any topic that they want without persecution - It also hosts a PS3 repo as well for Homebrew etc

www.x-realm.co.uk/forum - new forum that looks like it might cater for a little bit of everything

www.datacave.co.uk - ModShack reborn

www.nzbshack.com - NZB files for newsgroups
 
http://murobbs.plaza.fi/

That's the biggest Finnish computer/technology forum. I can't say I frequent it but I visit it by time to time and make a few posts here and there. That's where I go if I need to ask something about PCs.

http://hopeinenomena.net/index.php

That's a Finnish equivalent to MacRumors. Not a big fan of it but I go there occasionally to see if there is anything interesting. It's a lot quieter so I prefer MR which keeps me interested all the time. They are also more like a regular guys who know next to nothing about computers.

To be honest, MR is the only forum I frequent. Judging by my post count, one could say I spend quite a lot time in here, which is true.
 
I belong to a forum only rich people know about Svenborgia :D

Serious... I used to belong to several, including a Cadillac Owners forums, but have little use for them now and haven't been any others in ages. I used to be much more active online than I am now.
 
Keep the list coming. I want to make sure I don't run into any of you elsewhere. ;)
 
cheapassgamer.com
notebookreview.com

There are tons of others I have accounts at and lurk and/or post from time to time (phandroid, openpandora, avsforum, hardocp etc.)
 
Metallica.com forums
TundraTalk.net (Toyota Tundra)

I frequent these forums the most, by far.
 
macrumors
macnn - I used go here but the place is dying, not a fun forum by any stretch anymore. Kind of sad to see something whither on the vine.
dpreview - a photography size
macworld
macosxhints
realmacsoftware - rapidweaver support site
androidcommunity.com
androidcentral
appleinsider


The list may be a bit long, but I don't go to them regularly. I'll go to dpreview when I have questions regarding photography, or realmacsoftware when I'm working with rapidweaver. I tend to stick with macrumors.
 
Corner-Carvers <--- a site where tech rules regardless of the topic
SDOT <--- not an easy place to get into
Bo-Port <--- a forum for Ford 2.3L performance engine
TurboFord <--- A site for the above engines but in turbocharged form

A have probably 15-20 other that I visit on occasion(including MR), but those are the ones I visit daily.
 
Amazing guys, keep them comin'. I'm surprised by the wide assortment of topics the forums you guys visit. I'm discovering lots of interesting places and most I've never heard of before.
 
This is the only forum anymore, however, but I like to visit sites about math/science, history, education, weather, tv shows, shopping/product reviews, music, wikipedia, bbc, sports sites, and of course Google.

A fun, somewhat related site I go to is www.apple-history.com
