Getting out of the Facebook bubble

 

We’ve all spent hours at a time on Facebook just going from profile to profile, looking at strangers’ awesome travel photo albums, et cetera, oftentimes just waiting for a new little notification bubble to pop up. We’ve all heard of the Duke bubble, and if you’re like me, you’ve also experienced the suffocating sense of being inside the Facebook bubble while online.

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that there are other things to do on the Internet. When you finally realize that you’re not getting any new Facebook notifications anytime soon, have no fear: there are plenty of other ways to kill time on the Internet.

Here are some classics and a few of my personal faves:
