Your five favorite links (besides CivFanatics)

[Adso de Fimnu]

Hello all.
I was just browsing through my favorite links when I had an epiphany: what if there are other cool sites on the internet that I don't know about? So that's why I started this thread. Post your five best links--show someone else something new!

 

[Adso de Fimnu]

For starters, here are mine:

Homestar Runner- perhaps the funniest site on the internet.
http://www.homestarrunner.com/

Free the Gnomes- the quintessential site for gnome liberation.
http://www.freethegnomes.com/

Mark Rosenfelder's Metaverse- a brilliant mix of linguistics, politics, cartoons... all types of stuff.
http://www.zompist.com/default.html

The Flick Filosopher- definitely the best movie critic online.
http://www.flickfilosopher.com/

The Tolkien Sarcasm Page- my favorite Tolkien humor site.

These sites are all good clean fun!

I sometimes look at GlobalSecurity.org
http://www.globalsecurity.org

Since I check out grades now (finally have all of them posted!), Pace University
http://www.pace.edu

Since I don't get the free papers in classes nowadays, the New York Times website.
http://www.nytimes.com

Meh, I can't think of any others at this time...I'm tired.

http://www.snopes.com/snopes.asp Urban Legends-Tries to find out if there is any truth to them or not.

http://www.somethingawful.com/index.htm Something Awful-satire

http://www.crimelibrary.com/ The Crime Library-Crime stories on serial killers, the mafia, terrorists, spies, assassins, and gangsters.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/browse Seems to report news before the major media does (if they cover it at all), but you have to be careful due to biased and untrusty sources that are sometimes in there, so take all the news with a grain of salt.

http://www.darwinawards.com/index.html Darwin Awards.

Bonus:
http://letsroll911.org/ipw-web/bulletin/bb/index.php Let's Roll! 911 Made Simple. - Website of wacky 9/11 conspiracies (some are more believable than others). Interesting to watch their methods, way of thinking, and to what extreme some of them will believe some of the stuff.

This really is a great site.

 

[WillJ]

http://launch.yahoo.com ---- wide selection of music videos, all free and legal

Google ---- no explanation necessary

Maddox ---- it's already been linked to, you lazy-ass

http://www.ebay.com ---- where I get a lot of my stuff, especially video games

http://www.blackpeopleloveus.com ---- damn, that site's funny [I don't visit it regularly, though, since they rarely update]

Sorry for going slightly off topic but does anyone know a website that sells Heroes 4 cheap? Nowhere seems to stock it at a reasonable price anymore.

www.bbc.co.uk is handy as well
