Reddit is amazing. The site has earned a reputation as an extraordinary place to find content quickly and easily - so what do the users of the go-to site see as the go-to sites?

A thread on the AskReddit subreddit sought to find the answer to this question, which you can peruse at your leisure if you wish.

For the pedants among you, there is a reason google.com doesn't feature - this is meant to be detailing websites most would not know about already.

If you want a slightly condensed and editorialised version, see our top ten, below:

1. you.regettingold.com

Enter your birthday and the website will put your age into perspective with a whole host of morbid statistics.

Possibly the most harrowing is the chart which shows the proportion of people who were born on your birthday who have died.

2. pcottle.github.io/MSOutlookit/

You can now read reddit in Microsoft outlook form.

Unsurprising perhaps, that redditors reccommended a tool to make it easier to browse the site without drawing scrutiny at work...

If you don't like Outlook, you can use Cluffle, which makes pages appear like a Google search if you type in the subreddit, or Subdood which makes it read like Wikipedia.

Employers, you have been warned.

3. chordify.net

If you're learning an instrument and want to learn how to play certain songs, the chances are that chordify can assist you.

4. camelcamelcamel.com

Want to know when an item drops price on Amazon? This site will alert you, keep track of item prices or just allow you to view the history of them over time. You have to create an account, but still, we're told, worth it.

Or, you could just use this guide from magamaleh, apparently the ultimate consumer.
