[EDIT: For the preceding poll, you can count any kind of browsing as “shopping for entertainment,” which should probably have just been “looking for entertainment.” The idea is that you just happened across a particular work or group of works while looking for something to do for fun, without being directed to the IF specifically by someone else.]
