Once you arrive at the office, how do you start your day? You probably do not dig directly into your work. (If you do, you deserve a raise). More realistically, you hit the coffee and peruse your favorite catch up on the news you missed when connecting to your virtuous eight hours of dream time websites.
Even here in PCMag.com our browsers are not always listening to our own website. In fact, many of our sites must read are not even related technology. Shocking, is not it? But it is our duty to be on all the news that's fit to tweet. In addition, Facebook friend requests will not be confirmed.
Remember, visiting these sites is important gathering of information, not woolgathering. In this way, later, the water cooler (read: GI people in the same cavernous room at the office), you can show your mastery of pop culture (read: died on Game Of Thrones last night).
