What are your favorite websites?

I'm not talking about CNN or Google or anything that's already common knowledge. I'm talking about slightly more obscure ones. Helpful ones, interesting ones, funny ones, whatever.

Examples: The Onion (http://www.theonion.com) which is a satirical fake news website.

Vault (http://www.vault.com) has reviews and helpful information about many companies for prospective employees.

It's not news, it's Fark (http://www.fark.com).com

I can unfortunately spend hours on MySpace (http://www.myspace.com) - a social website.

Myspace is something I have become hooked on. :o I enjoy imdb.com and trivia sites(need to look up the names, long list) and pogo.

For celebrity gossip I visit Dana'sDirt (http://www.danasdirt.com) daily!

[Elizabeth]

Snopes (http://www.snopes.com) is really entertaining. They reveal whether urban legends are true or not. I've learned a lot on that site!

The Manolo (http://shoeblogs.com/)

[KelMel]

I second Dana's Dirt (http://www.danasdirt.com) for celeb gossip.

I also visit Dustin's Days Page (http://www.soapoperafan.com/days) for DOOL spoilers and such.

DH is addicted to Google Earth (http://earth.google.com). So much, in fact that he created a companion site for it called Google Earth Hacks (http://www.googleearthhacks.com) and now we're both addicted. :D

I spend way too much time on http://www.critiquecircle.com/, a writing workshop with chatforums.

I also tend to use Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page) to look up everything I need to know - be it a presice defenition of "emo" kids or the details of Lord Byron's life. It's an online encyclopedia which anyone can edit. Sure, that can mean that it's not always 100% reliable, but it's surprisingly good, since there are thousands of active users, adding to articles to the best of their knowledge, as well as stopping the trolls from ruining anything :)

It's a fascinating look inside people's thoughts. Sometimes funny, sometimes sad, sometimes disturbing, always thought provoking.
