This week:​

1. MuscleWiki, which allows you to click any part of the human body, then provides you with a list of exercises to workout said part. It also describes each exercise and shows you how to do it.
2. Boredom doesn't mean you should distract yourself with the simplest and most mind-numbing content out there on the web. Try expanding your knowledge by diving deep into the incredibly useful and thought-provoking blog posts on Brain Pickings, which is a popular blog run by MIT fellow Maria Popova. She's the one who does all the research and writing for each post.
3. Lifehacker is a stylishly named life tips and software recommendation site. The mesmerising appeal of Lifehacker is about how practically useful it is. All the advice focuses on accomplishing more in your everyday life, like how to cook better al dente pasta, how to tailor your daily work to your personal strengths, and how to grow vegetables in your apartment.
4. Silk is a site to create dreamy works of art with your mouse. Have fun subconsciously drawing genitalia.
5. Ted is a site with 1900+ informative and interesting talks to choose from you’re guaranteed to find something you love.
