It wouldn't really be a 'blog' if I didn't include some links to my favourite web sites. Of course so you don't get lost I'll tell you a little bit about the sites, and why I like them so much. Mostly these are the sites that I visit most often, so they're obviously what holds my attention :)

Graviton City: the Project A-ko Web Site
http://www.gravitoncity.com

I can hardly list my favourite sites without including my own :) This is my life's work, and is the creative outlet into which I pour the greatest effort. The site is all about one of my favourite anime movies, Project A-ko. I've gathered as much information as I possibly can about the movies, and collected a huge amount of unique and often very rare content that isn't available anywhere else. I've always wanted to be the "best in the world" at something, and even though it's a pretty insignificant best, this is as good as it gets for online A-ko information :) Some folks have even suggested it's one of the best anime fan sites online *blush*. I'll let you decide that for yourself!


Slashdot: News for Nerds
http://www.slashdot.org

It may not have the most stellar journalistic standards, but if you want to stay informed with up-to-the-minute science and technology news, then slashdot is hard to beat. The massive community submits all kinds of fascinating news from all over the web, links to it, and comments on it. Sometimes the comments are more enlightening than the stories that are linked to. The option to view comments by their rating is outstanding, allowing you to sift all the wheat from the chaff. The first of several stops on my daily news run, slashdot keeps me informed and entertained.

MegaTokyo
http://www.megatokyo.com

This is far-and-away the best manga-style web comic. The art is outstanding, the story is deep and touching, and the humor, although not a primary feature of the site, is often brilliant. I can't say much more, except that I eagerly await each installment, and I always re-read each one many times to fully let the art and story soak into my mind. You really have to check this out for yourself. Expect to become addicted like me :)

Morons.org
http://www.morons.org

A hilarious web site that highlights news stories from America (occationally an international story appears) that show a unique level of moronic behaviour. Always a laugh but often scary when the story is about the mornonic behaviour of world leaders. Interestingly but not surprisingly, the majority of stories feature fundamentalist Christians, who are also simultaneously amusing and frightening. The site has a strong emhasis on free speech and human rights.


I have many other favourite sites, but this lot will do for now. I'll bring you some more in the future. In the meantime, please enjoy the sites!
