Readers,
You know what I am talking about – you’ve likely all experienced it too: the Spanking Internet Wormhole.
I start by reading the titles of the newest blogs on my blogroll here; usually I don’t click through to the photoblogs, as I’m more interested in others’ thoughts than their body parts. An interesting title always grabs my attention, though, so I click through to a friend’s blog and read happily.
After finishing my read, I usually scroll around said blog to see what else they’re offering – which inevitably leads to clicking through to another blogsite for more reading. If the blogger is well-written (or well-followed) this usually means that there will be commenters below the post; I read those too.
Invariably, I’ll see a name or blog title which I haven’t previously, so I’ve no choice but to click through to it and take a look around. This person will likely reference friends on one or more social networks, which I’ll then visit in my quest to know everything in the universe – but only if it’s totally non-scholarly and useless in the overall scheme of things. And spanking-related.
Said social network will usually produce a link to a discussion, thread, or message board. I love reading around various group postings, if only for the sheer voyeuristic pleasure of watching people subject themselves to one another over and over again. From one thread or another, a commenter or two will stick out, either for their intelligent opinions..or their idiotic ones, so I’ll click over to their profile. Many people have their own websites today, and if this person has one, it will be linked everywhere. So, naturally, I must click through to this person’s website and check it out. Oftentimes, these websites are blog-type sites, and often they’re promoting either themselves or a group of people in some professional capacity. If they’re connected to a business, I have to see what that business does – so I click their website.
This site could be just about anything – from spanking to general bdsm to pornography to goodness-knows-what-else.
Yesterday, goodness-knows-what-else led me to a touching article about clown porn pioneer Hollie Stevens, her battle with stage four cancer, and her recent hospital wedding. Also, an interesting blog posting about employment compensation problems between Kink.com and some of their KinkLive webcam models, by Maggie Mayhem.
These webpages naturally spawned a host of clicks, thereby leaving me with approximately seventeen tabs open on my internet browser. This became entirely too much pressure, causing me to close the browser entirely and get into the bathtub with a good book.
Where was I?

Try doing this and then adding all of the opened tabs as favorites – this happened to me (because god forbid I miss something good or need to cross reference) and the list got so long that I can’t even open my favorites link folder anymore because it goes into overload!

I like that you share the inner workings of your mind every now and then! It’s good to hear about the things you like to think about instead of just stories! =)

Where you looking over my shoulder? :-) The Wife
So true! And nearly every one of those clicks gets registered, counted, and is fodder for someone making money by selling advertising. I’ve had to give up attending a trade show as Press that I’ve attended and reported on for years because now they want to see an independent audit of the monthly number of unique visitors to my web site. They suggest Google Analytics but you know that Google doesn’t just give ME the data they gather from clicks on my web site, they sell it to their advertisers.
Now THAT’S a wormhole of a different color

Which is why I subscribe to the blogs that I find interesting and want to keep up with. I can read them in my email and I’m not tempted to continue reading and clicking and reading and losing whole chuncks of time. You described it perfectly by calling it a “wormhole” because time is certainly distorted and stolen from me. Now that I’ve been compelled to respond, I will quickly close this tab and continue my work…..at least that’s the plan……..
Yep, I’ve done the same thing.
Ha, ha, ha!
I have several sites I visit on a daily basis and then that is it. I do know about the worm hole thing, though, in other areas I am interested in and sometimes stumble upon while searching for other things. From one thing to another and pretty soon about five hours has flown by! In 2006, I watched Etna erupting for about six hours! So it goes.
I like that your refuge from the wormhole was the bath with a good book. Don’t say it was a Kindle though, or I’ll lose all respect :)

I am so tickled that I’m not the only one who gets lost in the Spanking Internet…whew!
(Anthony: I’ll never own a Kindle, for that very reason. Every one of my favorite books has been dropped in the tub at least once. It’s a rite of passage.)
Thank goodness for the internet – without it, I’d never have known about all of YOU.
