Ever wondered how email works? Ever actually asked yourself how an email travels from your computer to an recipient in seconds?

Every week, to ensure you’ll never be bored, we scour the web to find ten interesting websites. We like to call these top websites our ‘Weekly Faves‘. They can be any kind of sites: fun sites, games sites, news sites, video ones, great pages for shopping, artists, design… literally anything. Every week, one or two stand out as particularly unique or fun, and we decided that they deserve their own monthly post. But seeing as we haven’t done any for 2012 yet, here’s our list of the top 10 best websites of 2012… so far!

When I read the name ‘Free Cabin Porn‘, my first thought was: “Hmm, there’s probably something interesting to see here” (Cabins, of course, what were you thinking? That dirty mind of yours…) Ok, I’ll be honest, I let my imagination get carried away by the misleading address and found myself sailing through the unexpected: dozens of beautiful pictures… Just not of what I expected! I’ll leave you the job to find out exactly what. But just in case you’re already having seconds thoughts, let me tell you that pleasure is still the keyword to this website.

This one goes out to all the tech savvy (and not-so-tech-savvy) moms who just want some cool websites to play with, in honor of Mother’s Day 2012. We’ve selected some of the best of the Parenting Faves (our hand curated homepage for parents). Enjoy the list!

Ditto – There’s never been an easy way to shop for glasses online. Everybody’s head is a different shape for a start, so how on earth are you going to know what fits yours, simply by looking at a glossy photo of a pair of glasses on a website? And that’s why Ditto has created an utterly cool way of shopping for glasses online: with a 3D virtual fitting room… You’ll need to see it to believe it!

What do you want to do before you die? This website – ‘Before I Die I Want To’ collects the wishes people share on a polaroid: the things I want to do before I die. It’s poignant, emotional and one of the more interesting websites we’ve seen this year!

Dayzipping is a new site that lets you find and share the best day trips in Las Vegas, New York, San Francisco and the most interesting cities in the States and around the world.

When it comes to shopping, there are two kinds of people: brand followers and bargain hunters: you either love big brands and will spend to get them, or you love a cool bargain, and will hunt through independent stores, charity shops and online until you get it. If you’re the latter, allow me to introduce you to Storenvy, a pioneer of social shopping on a huge platform for indie sellers, traders and their very unique customers.

Is it just us or is everyone desperate for Gentlemint to be the Pinterest for men? Tech websites everywhere are falling over themselves to push Gentlemint onto the Pinterest bandwagon – it is, after all a social bookmarking tool for men to save cool, interesting pictures and articles from around the web.

Let’s play a little association game: Think of a DIY tool and a colour… (If you thought of a red hammer you picked the same as 98% of the people asked this question at the All My Faves HQ!)

Pimkie – a European clothing label for “energetic young women” has developed the Color Forecast – a fun, little tool to help you pick the perfect color outfit to wear… it lets you see what colors people are wearing right now in the fashion capitals of Paris, Milan and Antwerp… and it’s not creepy at all… honest…
