Reddit- Aaannnd its 4 am.

Ahh Reddit, the fall back of more comp-sci students than tumblr, Facebook and twitter combined. Am i joking? Yes. A community that boast about 2.45 million as of February 24th, 2014. It is a News aggregator that is organized according to 'up-votes' and 'down-votes' which are positive and negative respectively. these votes are given by 'redditors' which is simply the name for the user when they make an account. Speaking of which, making an account is very simple. Username, password, done. Couldn't be easier. As a content aggregator , one might wonder where the social networking comes in, especially as this site is very well known for its ability to get news out quicker than twitter. The social aspect occurs in the comments section where  people discuss ideas or make jokes or whatever. The submissions in the contents themselves are also ranked according to the up-votes and down-votes system. As a minimal designed website , its fast, works and better yet, you don't actually need an account to use! Not having an account simply limits the features you can use like the voting system and submission of content and comments.

So how is it? Fantastic. To me its the ultimate time killer. there are many  jokes about how people have no idea what they did in their spare time before using the website. the content is varied and can filtered and catered to taste. Reddit. Indeed , the front page of my internet usage.
