There are several major websites out there that people still don't know about. Rather than going over to your house and slapping you around with a wet fish, I thought I'd post some of them.
"For some of you, this will all be old stuff. You'll get over it."
5. Freecycle.org
I'm not sure what it is, but my referrer log searches constantly have the word "free" in them. You people need Freecycle. I've been using it for over a year now, and it's great. Here's what they say about themselves:
The Freecycle Network™ is made up of many individual groups across the globe. It's a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (& getting) stuff for free in their own towns. Each local group is moderated by a local volunteer (them's good people). Membership is free.Once you join, you find a group in your area. In the Tucson group there are 100+ messages a day, all about trading stuff. You look at the listings, and if someone is offering something you want, you shoot them an email and work out the details. Everything is always free. That's the rule. It's how I got my lawnmower.
4. IMDB.com
The Internet Movie Database. One or two clicks, and you have any information you want about any film or television show.
3. Snopes.com
Snopes is an excellent "Urban Legends Reference Page." You know that forward your crazy uncle Louie sent you the other day about how you have to boycott Pepsi because they're liberal scum who refused to put "Under God" on their cans when they printed the pledge of allegiance on them?
Is it true? Snopes knows.
You really want to freak yourself out? Type your own name in there.
1. Fark.com
People are always searching for "weird news." Fark.com is a massive website where news articles from around the globe are submitted, usually with a funny headline. The ones deemed best are placed on the front page. The news is always current.
I would wander into the comments sections only if you're not at work.
Bonus link:
How to commit suicide like a man. (NSFW) That's for all you perverts who get here by searching for naked pictures of Stephanie from LazyTown.
"Do you really think I would have anything to do with a fat, sweaty old man?"

2. Zabasearch.com
No screen shots for this one. If you want to find someone's address/phone number/age, use this site first. Sometimes the information is wrong or old, but if you're trying to hunt down that bastard Greg Winklebottom who owes you $47.00, this should always be your first stop.
