Simple really, a place to recommend a good website to others, I'll update the first post to include all websites reccomended

When recommending a site, please include the following

Category - Name - URL - Description

e.g.
Comedy - The Editing room - http://www.the-editing-room.com - Funny Abridged scripts of popular films


If you particulary like a Website that someone else has nominated, then you can award it a Star. This will then be added to the list as a basic rating system (Maximum of 5 stars)

Rules

- Nothing NSFW
- Nothing Illegal (so no torrents)
- Make sure it's appealing to most people (i.e don't reccomend your football club website.)
- Don't just reccomend your own website, it's most likely rubbish
- You can recommend a good piece of sofware, just make sure it doesnt have any Spyware etc.

Any suggestions for New categories, Formating recommendations etc are welcome[/Spoiler]

:lol: I was never! But...we can still hug it out if you like?

I thought a list of sites would be genuinly helpful, and a good resource for people looking to waste some time, but the fact that over 20 people have read this and not one bothered to come forward with a site shows what a rubbish idea it was.

Lock this gooseberry fool up please mods. :)

Their photoshop funnies are probably the best on the web. Safer than 4ch*n anyway.

For bargains, my first port of call is always

www.hotukdeals.com

definitely one of the most useful sites on the web.

Bargains.

Definitely.

There's also Moneysavingexpert.com. But that's more of a forum.

Comedy - Limmy's Blog - http://www.limmy.com/blog/ - One of the funniest blogs I regularly read, made by the guy that played Videogaiden's Zack Eastwood; Brian Limond. The comments lead the uninitiated into the Weegie psyche.

http://tineye.com - Image search website

You need the image on your HDD to begin with. Once uploaded it'll bring up links of sites which have that image, even if it's been altered or is a different size.

Great stuff guys, thanks and keep it coming.

Apologies as I'm having to edit some of your descriptions as I want to try and keep it all on one line. Let me know if you want me to change anything.

Will add Music in a sec.

Quick look at my favourites:

Webcomic - http://xkcd.net/ - Its tag line is "A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language." Truly inspired.

Webcomic - http://www.questionablecontent.net/ - An horribly addictive comic that can best be described as a long running internet soap opera. Start at the beginning and see three days of your life disappear as you catch up.

General - http://digg.com/ - Like this thread, but an entire site.

Urban Legends - http://www.snopes.com/ - Want to kow if something is an urban legend or not? This is the place.

Misc. - http://postsecret.blogspot.com/ - Post Secret, an ongoing community art project that now encompasses the globe. People send in postcards that contain their deepest secret. [Edit - Woo, seconded. And we both marked it 'misc.' 8-) ]

Another useful one, which I can't claim to have found (it was Abs or someone else).

Useful - File2HD - http://file2hd.com/ - Convert those music tracks on your favourite Myspace band and artist pages into MP3s.
