What's Your Favorite Website?

STEVEN
Where he presides: Landmarc, Columbus Circle
Favorite drink: Manhattan
That's tough, because I'm not really a net kind of guy. I get a lot of news online, so CNN.com is a big one for me. Hmm. Right now I'm thinking through all my bookmarks. Apple.com is my homepage, but that doesn't count. I guess I spend a lot of time on MySpace and Facebook; I have accounts at both. Mostly I just go wherever the net takes me, through the links my friends post.
ALLISON
Where she presides: Hellgate on the Park, Astoria
Favorite drink: Champagne
I'm a shopaholic, so I spend a lot of time on sites for stores that I like, places like Abercrombie & Fitch, American Eagle, Victoria's Secret, stuff like that. Not Amazon or eBay. Amazon doesn't have good clothes, and I don't like eBay because PayPal is too big of a pain. I probably buy clothing online at least once a month. My friends say I have too much, but I don't. For everything I buy, I put three in the poor bag.
EMILY
Where she presides: Trash Bar, Williamsburg
Favorite drink: Maker's Mark on the rocks
There's that Shit My Dad Says thing. It's the funniest thing you've ever read. Ever. It's this kid—well, he's 29—and he's got 1.9 million fans on Facebook, just for writing down shit his dad says. Now they're making a pilot of it. William Shatner might be the dad. I also probably spend too much time on CNN.com, because I don't have a TV, but I still need to know what's going on. And Freshome.com. I'm into interior design, so that's a daily thing. Oh, and this great blog called I Am Neurotic and So Are You. I read that every day. I haven't checked out Texts from Last Night yet, but everyone talks about it, so probably add that to the list of time wasters.

Favorite drink: Whiskey
Facebook! Oh, Facebook. I feel like way too much of my social life winds up being online. I read The Onion a lot too. And I'm a sports fan, so I read a lot of asshole sports blogs.

Where she presides: 123 Burger Shot Beer, Hells Kitchen
Favorite drink:Blue Moon
Definitely Facebook. I'm addicted to it, and spend more time there than even my e-mail. I like it because all my friends and family are on it, I don't even use a phone anymore because of Facebook. It's how I keep in touch with everyone. I go to it probably six times a day to see what all is going on and to check my messages. I probably have like 500 friends. I'm not into any other social networking sites though, especially not Twitter. Facebook is just the most personal.
