Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

Share a random bookmark

Postby Andrew on Tue Dec 08, 2009 8:57 pm

I know, I know, spam threads are the junk food of message boards but let's file this one under just for fun all the same. It might even prove to be entertaining and you might just end up sharing something that others find interesting or entertaining. Or not. Let's find out.

The concept is pretty simple. Grab something from your Favourites and post it here. If some of us having interesting enough stuff bookmarked, we could just make a game of it in trying to top one another with wonders of the World Wide Web. Oh, and one link per post.

I'll begin with this:
http://www.gtamissions.com/

Probably well known to a lot of people already, but a good source for visual walkthroughs as well as spoilers for those who are stuck and have given up.

That N64 emulator for the iPhone looks pretty cool. No doubt it will be popular if/when it comes out.

Like Snopes, it's a great timekiller and pretty fun/interesting.

Not quite sure how known it is, but a great concept. One offer a day, with up to 60% discounts, stuff ranging from cooking pans to 40" flatscreens...

Yeah seems to be, though I have noticed there have been clones to the concept, probably some for other continents. Can't think of the name right now though..

Found one: http://www.woot.com/. Don't know if they are trustworthy, for what it is worth never had any problems with iBood. (just US for woot)

I don't have many bookmarks and none that are interesting due to typing the first letter of something and it showing up in the URL bar in most browsers, especially Google Chrome. (Which even lets me type in two words from a thread on a forum and find it.)

So I'll post one of my few bookmarks: http://www.weather.com/outlook/homeandg ... _graph_tab
That's the hourly weather where I live. 30+ mph winds with snow currently.

Good times!

I can post random links to sites here though...

That'll work, in lieu of an actual bookmark. I don't think anyone will begrudge you that.

Here's one I forgot I had. A list of level codes for Lemmings...on the Acorn Archimedes, no less:

Oh I was just saying to Lightning Strike that the bookmark he gave is pretty cool. ;)

I play the piano and this website helps me find a lot of piano sheets.

Sorry, that was actually supposed to be in reply to benji. I was replying to a text so I ended up posting after you did.

I was really hesitant with the last one, because I thought a screamer was going to pop out and scare the crap out of me, so I squinted and pushed my chair as far back as possible. :lol: Still managed to get an average of 2.634 though.
