Some Links of interest
I'm not a big fan of links pages but I think that seeing as this is mine it's ok. These links aren't meant to be a comprehensive listing of all my bookmarks or anything like that, just a few pointers to some sites I've come accross that I think are cool, informative or just something. I've divided the links into some broad categories, other than that just go visit them should you feel inclined to do so.
Shoutouts
These are links to peoples personal websites which I think are quite good. I know some of these people personally, though some sites are just here for the heck of it. [In no particular order]
- Lets-Reachout.com - This is the site of a guy I know who does a lot of excellent work raising the enthusiasm of kids for reading. [fairly graphics heavy]
- CBBrowne.com - This has lots of quality information [if your into IT] you just need to look around for it.
- Ben Ashleys Website Freedom - It's a website by Ben Ashley [not sure what the "freedom" is for?], check it out.
- Noxid.co.uk - Personal Homepage of Ben Dixon.
Cool stuff
These are links to websites that I think are just cool, mostly they are art sites or similar so if you are on a slow connection be warned!
The Best- Infiltration - A really good site, this page is about exploring an abandoned Roswell Missile Silo
- This is Just Funny - I loved the page when it first loaded, ROFL
- DayDreamer - Illustrations by Julie Dillon, some cool anime stuff
- ScottMcCloud.com - Quite a cool site
- My favourite game as a kid [Frontier Elite 2] is available as shareware from this Frontier Developments, the follow up Frontier First Encounters is also available [Note: there is just a reminder screen when you first start the game, it isn't time limited]. If you decide to get these you may want to visit Alioth.net for some hints and tips.
