Come, let us gather as gentlemen and post about those websites on the intertubes that we hold most dear, those firmly ensconed in our Bookmarks Toolbar/Personal Bar.
This is EK's livejournal interblog thing. She's a cool lady and links to awesome music, and she's a full time professional illustrator.
This is what replaced my hotmail account (which now has a nearly perfect record of incorrectly identifying real mail as spam and vice versa). It's my favorite email solution, either client or web-based.
My furry/fag LARP faire community forum. Generally I lube up before going here. (WARNING LINK MAY BE NSFW)
Ars Technica has all the geeky news of slashdot, with out any of the comments to wade through.
Since I work in a computer hardware store, Anandtech is the best site you can get for in-depth hardware analysis of new hardware, although they have an annoying habit of only writing about the high-end enthusiast level equipment.
If I actually want to buy any of the shit that's I read about on Anandtech, I look for deals here. They're canadian, but I'm sure there's a US equivalent.
These guys are freakin' amazing. Click on the "Speedpainting" thread and you can see some of the best digital artists in the world comparing their work with ordinary goons and students like me. The people who post here are the same people doing storyboarding and concept work for movies and video games (like
Craig Mullins).
Come SE++, share with us where you visit and post on these internets.

Man, I don't get facebook. It combines the ridiculous lack of grammar and formality of instant messaging with the slowness of email.
before it's asked I swear eatpoo is an art site
I got PA, Photobucket, Achewood, Terror Island, Youtube, My Hockey Pool, Ultimate-Guitar, Facebook, and Share on Facebook
Dear satan I wish for this or maybe some of this....oh and I'm a medium or a large.
I mean last week I missed a few lectures in a healthcare class so saw who else was taking my class messaged them and got the notes it was great. Posting articles and links/videos for other people to check out is cool too.
I sound like I work for them but after using myspace wallop and other retarded shit it's great to see something that actually packs alot of great functionality under the hood without looking retarded.
It is for playing D&D and the like online. Kinda a messageboard, only with character functions and a built in dice roller and some other snazzy functions.
I am a nerd.
COTA- As a creepy fucker who rubs people on the bus, knowing schedules is important. This is the Central Ohio Transit Authority Homepage.

I think that was important enough to warrant a contribution.
One is Kotaku. One is Joystiq. One is the 1up show section of the main 1up site (a pain to navigate)
And one is a link to a review of 300, that new film, that is so fucking spectacular I might just post it here. I nabbed this from AICN and its ace.
I just saw a movie that’ll give your eyes boners, make your balls scream and make you poop DVD copies of THE TRANSPORTER. It’s called 300. I don’t know what the title has to do with the movie, but they could’ve called it KITTENS MAKING CANDLES and it’d still rule.
It’s about these 300 Greek dudes who stomp the sugar-coated shit out of like a million other dudes. I have a feeling that a lot of high school sports coaches are going to show this film to their teams before they play. Also, gay dudes and divorced women are going to use screen captures for computer wallpaper.
The movie takes place about a million years ago, and it’s sort of like a prequel to SIN CITY. Except way less guns and cars but twice as much skull splitting. If you watch this movie and go into a Taco Bell, and say to the cashier, “I need some extra sauce packets†guess what? You’re getting twenty sauce packets because your face will punch him in the brain.
I can’t spoil the plot because THANK GOD THERE ISN’T ONE. Just ass kicking that kicks ass that, while said ass is getting kicked, is kicking yet more ass that’s hitting someone’s balls with a hammer made of ice but the ice is frozen whiskey.
TWO COOL THINGS ABOUT THE MOVIE AND ONE THING I DIDN’T LIKE:
COOL THING ONE:
HEAVY METAL DURING BATTLE SCENES
Who gives a shit if the music isn’t historically correct? LORD OF THE RINGS could’ve used some Journey. This movie has that chu-CHUNG kind of metal that you hear in your head when your shift supervisor at Wetzel’s Pretzel is telling you that you’ll have to stay for clean up and you wish you had a sock filled with quarters in your hand.
COOL THING TWO:
FOES, MINI-BOSSES AND A BIG BOSS
Basically, the Greek dudes are fighting these Persian dudes, but the director, who must have a dick made of three machine guns, does it all like a video game. The Greeks fight every death metal video from the last ten years. There’s wave after wave of giants, freaks, ninjas, mutants, wizards, and a hunchback who looks like he’s got Rosie O’Donnell on his back.
Would I have been happy if Dom DeLuise from HISTORY OF THE WORLD, PART I had shown up? Maybe, but this movie more than makes up for that glaring oversight.
NOT SO GOOD THING:
DUDE NUDITY (“DUDE-ITYâ€)
These are Greek times, when there were a lot of naked women around. And there are some naked women in this film, but almost every naked woman scene has a muscular dude giving the screen an ass picnic. Dude-ity is something directors put in their movies so people will think they’re serious, I guess, and not just throwing in naked hotties.
Any directors reading this – IT’S OKAY TO JUST THROW IN NAKED HOTTIES.
Can’t someone make a movie about naked Amazons and call it PAUSE BUTTON?
My final analysis is 300 the most ass-ruling movie I’ve seen this year, and will probably be the King of 2007 unless someone makes a movie where a pair of sentient boobs fights a werewolf.
For whatever reason the FS logo took over my U of M mail link.
SE is my homepage
for photomagraphs
That is a surprise.
