Addiction to the computer has a bright side! During my search to find an effective time-waster (I am rather partial to economic and environmental activism on Youtube), I have stumbled upon several sites that were quite interesting.

If you watch the news or television at least, you should be familiar with the political situation in Burma/Myanmar. These people need support from anyone and everyone, even that hobo outside of Kroger could be some Burmese child's savior. To find out the latest on what's happening, visit www.freeburma.org

I thought this site was a cell phone service provider at first glance--but it isn't. (I need to get my eyes checked) This is an all-partisan site, dedicated to getting the younger generation to get more involved in society or be socially aware; not only is it good exercise, but I think I can hear your couch groaning in agony because you've been sitting on it too ling.  www.mobilize.org

It's self explanatory, my dear Watson. Youth for human rights; however, one must wonder if a site such as "seniors for human rights", or "adults for human rights" exists.

Now, to prevent the odious act of alienating anybody, adults or people just curious to know how parents react to the world around them should check out http://www.whatthefudgesicle.com. Fudgey-social conscious goodness awaits you.
