Cool websites for when you are bored

[lucky_scrote]

Ok well here is a thread for posting links to cool websites.


They might be educational or funny sites or maybe a site good for games.


Hopefully this thread gets some good links that I can add to my favorites.

Cool links so far

[SIZE="4"][CENTER]Best Online Videos | Wimp.com

Personality Tests and Tools

BBC - Homepage

The Internet Movie Database (IMDb)

I Want One Of Those

WIMP.COM

EDIT* No rick rolling please, and if links are not suitable for work then put the NSFW tag on!

For poker you can't do worse than The Million Dollar Poker Page

Just close your eyes and click. There's links to the best blogs, videos, casinos, forums and sites.

I went through all the poker blogs as I put them up and there are some really good ones there.

Non poker, try Personality Tests and Tools for some cool tests.

ColorQuiz.com - The free five minute personality test! was spookily accurate when I took it a few years ago.

Nice one matrix, I like the personality tests, I added that to my fav's

[Gus Mango Fish]

My favourite two sites are BBC - Homepage - for the news content.

and The Internet Movie Database (IMDb) - as I'm a bit of a move buff

Probably not thrilling enough sites for you young'uns though lol.

I really should have the BBC website added to my fav's....

Heres another link for ya:

I Want One Of Those - A v cool site that has lots of useless shit you can buy, I have bought a lot of cool things from here

[Dice Man]

Let me see...

http://www.last.fm/dashboard/

This is a site that records the tracks you play using a plugin on Media Player. I mostly just have my tracks on random though so it tends to record more the bands I have more of. I've apparently listened to 85,000 tracks on my computer over the last 3 years (which is...WTF...4.75 hours a day on average! No wonder I never get any work done.)

National Trust Names

Use this site to see what part of the country is the most dense with people of your surname. You can check both 1998 and 1881 so you can see whereabouts your very extended family came from and where they've gone. (It's quite surprising how little even very popular names like "Smith" have moved away in 100+ years.) Theya re currently working on doing the same thing worldwide.

ReneesGhosts

This site entertains me every now and again. It's some mad woman who thinks she lives in a massively haunted house. Make sure to check out the haunted clown doll that moves and says things. (caught on microphone- this stuff would scare most children I suspect.)

Marry Our Daughter

I think this is a joke site. I'm not sure, and haven't really tried to find out.

My Ghost Photos

This is a website that collects photos of ghosts. I scammed them with a badly faked photo which they still showed.

Ghoststudy Research

This is another site that were trying to get ghosts to write in to tell them about being a ghost. So I did and I'm their featured response.

Two NSFW sites now, firstly:

Our Crap is Your Crap << totallycrap.com

They generally post funny videos fairly often. Then there is:

eFukt.com | Viral Porn

This is where I get most of my fucked-up videos from. Nowadays they mostly only post slightly bizarre sex scenes, but they have some good weird stuff in their archive. That one is a 8/10 when it comes to NSFW, where 10/10 would be child porn or something.

best-of-craigslist

The best of Craigslist adverts. You can definitely kill an hour or so reading real stories about what the lowest of the low in society get up to.

BBC iPlayer - Home

If you haven't got a TV then this place is damn good for watching BBC programmes.

I Want One Of Those - A v cool site that has lots of useless shit you can buy, I have bought a lot of cool things from here

N1. I need a place like this since the Gadget Shop started selling only rubbish.

[dendrite]

That best of craiglist page is brilliant, definitely kept me from working for an hour or so - Cheers!

[wesiwyg]

how about WherestheMatch.com- tells you who is playing on the TV for football, rugby and cricket and covers all the main channels like SKY sports, setanta, ITV1-4, BBC etc.. saves me loads of time and effort.

[Gus Mango Fish]

This site has some excellent content, though sadly a lot of it is for subscribers only now: World Of Stuart

I also like Urban Legends Reference Pages and Truth Or Fiction - email reality check - verify rumors - both great sites to find the origin of most spam emails (that apparently some people still believe and forward!)
