I use Google for research, when I'm looking for specific information. With Google, I know what I'm looking for, and if I don't find it in the first set of results, I search again. When I'm just looking for interesting stuff, I turn to a handful of places: Digg, Slashdot, Wired, and other sites in my bookmarks. I go to those sites specifically and scroll through the headlines looking for something that piques my interest. Twitter and Facebook and IRC are very passive ways that I come by links to interesting things. Things I don't seek out, but that simply land in my lap.

I probably have 20 Twitter clicks for ever Google search I do. I don't mess with Facebook any more, though. I got real bored with it. Hunh, I never noticed that.
