I've asked this before and gotten some great suggestions. How about sharing websites you like?

Here's one of mine.

Anything on youtube to do with "TED Talks".

They are informative, inspiring, enlightening and edifying.

The antithesis of sacrament meeting.

Here’s more info on the TED talks. First, the link:
http://www.ted.com/

The website accurately describes itself as “Riveting talks by remarkable people, free to the world.” Most talks are 18 minutes long.

To get a feel for the talks, try one of these:

“The Magic of Truth and Lies and iPods”
http://www.ted.com/talks/marco_tempest_the_magic_of_truth_and_lies_on_ipods.html

“The Origins of Pleasure”
http://www.ted.com/talks/paul_bloom_the_origins_of_pleasure.html

Dan Ariely talks about his fascinating book “Predictably Irrational" http://www.ted.com/talks/dan_ariely_asks_are_we_in_control_of_our_own_decisions.html

For pictures (usually SFW) www.kuvaton.com . It's Finnish, so sometimes the pictures are a bit strange.

This is a good one for reading: www.thatsmyboss.com .

I also love: www.peopleofwalmart.com . The photos are priceless.

I'm OBSESSED with topdocumentary.com! I just watched this one called the Virgin Daughters, it's about the purity movement in America...totally reminded me of mormonism...I definitely recommend it! Super creepy.

I tend to spend a lot of the day at my PC, so I always have 'the guardian' (british newspaper) website in the background http://www.guardian.co.uk

My office has a TV which plays Sky news all day, so for a lighter alternative, I also use Fark http://www.fark.com it's a news concentrator site, updated several times a day, and also has photoshop and photography contests.... Safe for work (anything there which is NSFW is always labelled)

http://www.radiotower.com/ - an international radio station selector, when I am in the mood to listen to an italian rock radio station, or a texas country music station

Etiquette Hell forums. It's like relief society, in that sometimes there's useful information, but I usually read it for the drama, schadenfreude, and thank-diety-that's-not-my-life!
