I'm bad at the internet

Fact:

I got gmail a few days ago because a friend went and signed me up (Thanks Mary) though I'm feeling real hesitant to really make the switch.

Websites I normally frequent:

Yahoo for my email, facebook, friends' blogs, nytimes crossword, hulu, netflix. I've heard that there is a lot of cool, funny, interesting things on the world wide web, I'm not sure what those things are or how to find them.

What people I know blog about:

Babies (don't have any), funny things (I'm not that funny)

Fact:
My life is basically boring. My work can be interesting, but it would be unethical for me to blog about it.

How can I get better at this?

I will brag about my most recent crafting escapades. I made this dress.
