Ocearch Shark Tracker
Humans have always had the primal instinct to do random things to keep themselves occupied, and we tend to get easily entertained, like tracking sharks. Not something we thought we could do, right? But we have a website for that, ‘OCEARCH Shark Tracker.’ This website enables anyone to track tagged sharks. Now, this might not be one of the most conventional time-wasting websites on the internet, but it definitely is the coolest.

A Soft Murmur
‘A SOFT MURMUR,’ this time-wasting website, is available on apps for Android and IOS too. It is one of the fun websites to waste time on as it acts as a white-noise machine that contains different types of sounds of nature for the user. It has a slider control that can regulate the sound of the chosen nature sound. There are five available sounds: Fire, Rain, Thunder, Wind, and Waves. It is customizable for the user, such as turning on Rain and Thunder would give an effect of a distant storm outside and calm you down

Gravity Points
‘GRAVITY POINTS,’ created by Akimitsu Hamamuro, is one of the addictive time-wasting websites that creates an effect of gravity by allowing you to plot small gravity centers across the screen and smaller objects on the screen to gravitate towards it and orbit it. You can create as many gravity centers as you like and watch them compete with each other. In addition, the gravity centers could absorb each other and become a black hole causing the spacing effect right on your screen.

This website is pretty famous for its ability to spend a lot of time on it. ‘BUZZFEED’ this website has a collection of quizzes to articles. Anyone that starts with one article on life hacks would find themselves a couple of hours later on a quiz on “What type of cupcake are you?”
