You know how each of us have our own little virtual routine? It may be logging on to Facebook during our morning coffee, checking email while standing in line at the grocery store, or checking out the news on msn.com or the Leader Post? Well I’ve put together a list a “best of the web” list to help you with those things in life that really matter – family, health, and even financial aid providers. There are millions of sites out there so let’s take the guess work out of some of the searching and direct you to some resources that may help you in your daily life.
