Post a website, entertain me!
Tuesday, November 13th, 2007 - 2:22pm
All right you all know how this works by now. Post a website that you enjoy, that you think others might like. Certis is going to be quick with the thread lock so don't screw it up! That means no hardcore porn and No Pimping Your Own Website, or sites you're affiliated with.
I'm setting the over/under at 40 posts prior to lockdown.
I'll get the ball rolling. Here's a sports website that I like more for their commentary and random videos than their actual sports.
Warning: Mildly NSFW for language and random bikini girls.

I found this site years ago, and I don't go there except to check on it a couple times a year.
There are some really... um, neat videos and just... things in there.

Post Secret is updated every Sunday and there's no archives kept so at any given time what you see is what you get.
Much like my weekly podcast staples like NPR's 'This American Life', 1up Yours, and our very own GWJ Conference Call, the website Post Secret is one of the few online experiences that I regularly look forward to every week and am sure never to miss.
Don't forget the text version for those who don't have Flash enabled.

Student: So, I was wondering if I could know how I did on that presentation last week.
Professor: Oh, yes, yes -- you did wonderful!
Student: No, I mean, like, how did I do?
Professor: Wonderful. You did wonderful.
Student: So... Is that my grade?
Professor: Yes.
Student: Great, now I have all zero's and a 'Wonderful.' I wonder what that averages out to.

I have a few daily web comics that I hit everyday to get rolling
Questionable Content- One of my favorites - if you've got the time start at the beginning of the archives
Giant in the Playground - A great comic for those that enjoy the d20 style games

Perhaps the most disturbing part to me is that they have an Advent calendar, and I can't imagine a US company doing that, despite all this crazy religious stuff we've got going over here.

Website of the fantastic The Skeptic's Guide to the Universe podcast. They discuss pseudoscience, medical quackery, perversions of science, and the generally espouse the epistemological position of scientific skepticism. If you're still awake after that sentence, you might enjoy it. I recommend checking out their blog first to see if its worth your listening time: http://www.theskepticsguide.org/sgublog/

Oh, yeah! I forgot about his site! I haven't checked it out in years. I think I had it in a bookmarks folder that got wiped out 4 or 5 years ago. I'm gonna go see if it has changed. Good one luna.
EDIT:
Awwwww, yeah... It has changed a bit in layout, and you can listen to some full songs now. Cool.
