To pass the time, make sure that you catch up on what TNW has been covering all day, it has been a killer interesting start to the week. If you have already done that, you could always, well, you know, check Buzz. At least that hasn’t had too many reliability problems yet.
I mean, what is a little privacy between you and the whole internet?
