In the spirit of adventure and because I got bored with the sites I usually visit, post one or more of the favourites (bookmarks) that you go to and that you think we'd all like to see.

Obviously I visit this place, but I also go to



[edit] - thanks Cheeseman, descriptions are good

Heh, yeah, I do. I like it - I can be a bit more expansive than when writing for print.

i.e., I can rant.

Just read your 'The Great Destroyer' review (I'm guessing that's you), great stuff. You were right, the difference in style is almost shocking initially, but perseverance reveals much. And as for sounding like Enya?? You did well with your restraint.

I have a pop-up menu for sites I frequent, Favorites collects a lot of garbage.

http://www.bartleby.com/61/ - I have a pop-up blocker
http://www.campusi.com/ - This is useful
http://www.customhouse.com/currency_calculator.htm - As is this
http://www.americanantigravity.com/index.shtml
http://members.shaw.ca/ron.blond/Vern.APPLET/
http://www.trs-80.com/ - There is a 'Name The Band' program in a book I haven't found

It's time for my monthly post:-

http://www.talkorigins.org/ - some good stuff on creation v evolution here. The feedback posts are a hoot.

http://www.channel4.com/sport/cricket/stats/index.html - for all your essential cricket stats.

http://www.environment-agency.gov.uk/subjects/flood/826674/829803/858477/?version=1&lang=_e - type in your postcode and pray you're not living on a flood plain.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/5day_f.shtml?world=0424 - the BBC websites are all pretty good. Need to know how hot Death Valley is today?

and this one's quite good. I understand people actually buy and sell things online here. Amazing.
