When it comes to learning new skills, killing some time between 9 and 5 at the office, or trying to figure out what to do with your life, we all need a little help. Let these websites help.
They probably won’t change your life, but they’ll help you be a better you, entertain you for a sec, or just maybe, they might propel you forward a little.
Now you can be just as sophisticated as the aristocrats down at the club, drinking scotch and playing the greatest game of strategy, known to man.
Or just learn how to play chess to keep your brain nimble. This site gives free chess lessons for beginners and up.
If you need just a blank place to write down ideas, or place things copied from your clipboard, this site is literally a blank page where you can type things, and come back to it whenever. It’ll still be there when you come back.
Sure, you can use your notes app, or some other form of note taking, but this site is just so simple and easy. Don’t know about you, but I have a hard time with word.
I miss Clippy sometimes.
This handy website will tell you where you can stream, download or buy any particular movie you’re looking for.
Sure beats endlessly scrolling through Netflix and Amazon Prime to see who’s got what.
This site, created during the time that Breaking Bad was on the air, is still active. You can peruse the site as if you believe that Walter’s just an innocent teacher, stricken with cancer.
Once upon a time, if you actually made a donation, it went to the National Cancer Coalition. Now, it just drives you to the AMC website. Still though, makes you want to watch it all again, right?

Just give your SO a heads up when they head to this site, incase they think you’re trolling them. You don’t want to eat cold pop tarts for dinner. Again.
Account Killer
We all know that we’re being spied on right? Especially with all the coverage that Mark Zuckerberg got for the Facebook data sale, more and more social sites are collecting info on us.
So, if you’re uncomfortable with that and want a quick and dirty way to erase your social self, this site will help.
