Well we might as well start off with one of my other obsessions, if you've not
already guest by the badge it's Everton Football Club. Yes, I know it's sad but
it's been such a long time and you've got to keep supporting your team. Last
season we finally got rid of Walter Smith the manager and replaced him with
David Moyes, the result is a fitter and sharper team. Thing are looking up.
There's plenty of sites out there for Evertonians some better than others, some
have come and some have gone. The official Everton site
http://www.evertonfc.tv is now very good
and is better than it use to be, I think it's taken them five goes to get to
this stage. One of my favourite unofficial sites is ToffeeWeb, although it has
changed recently to just a good Everton info. site and doesn't need to be as
good as it use to be.This site is always kept well up to date. In the dark days
of the past when the club wasn't providing any info.ToffeeWeb was always there
to help us out which is no mean achievement as it originated in Finland.
http://www.toffeeweb.com/Welcome.html A site which has got my vote as
probably the best fanzine site is bluekipper
http://www.bluekipper.com This has everything a fans site could want, facts,
gossip, pics, opinions it's got the lot. Check it out and send them your
opinions. Here's a few more.
http://www.whenskiesaregrey.com http://www.sfth.co.uk
http://www.liverpool.com/evertonian/
CarlingNet
http://www.fa-premier.com/club/efc Also try Sky sports, this will give
you a link to any prem. club news. It's also handy if you need to know the
latest scores, it's updated as soon as there's a goal from any club in the
league
http://www.skysports.co.uk/skysports/football/ and finally this site lists
all of the above and many more
http://evertonfc.merseyworld.com/efclinks.html
There's plenty of search facilities out there now but I still like www.37.com This enables you to use 37 search engines without having to go and find each one individually. Very handy. Or you could just go and ask Jeeves.
If your into music on the web then you might be interested in MP3 files. Since I started this site there seems to have been an explosion of different sites. http://www.audioactive.com/home.html is the place I originally downloaded a player from but I've recently changed to MusicMatch Jukebox which can be downloaded free from http://www.mp3.com This player also converts MP3 into wave files and wave files into MP3 and with a large number of different skins it's well worth it. And finally if MP3 is what your after then visit KaZaA or Bearshare. Napster was every ones favourite but all good things have to come to an end..R.I.P. ; Well we all move on. I now use Winamp or musicMatch Jukebox to play them and down load them from BearShare.
If you ever want to book tickets for most things that need a ticket then look no further than this site http://www.aloud.com/ The site is easy to use and booking your concert tickets or what ever couldn't be quicker. I personally recommend aloud.com having used it on quite a number of occasions.
Still a good site for a bit of U.S. gossip. http://www.drudgereport.com/
Another music site is the http://www.Qonline.co.uk/ This web version of the popular if not 30 something magazine gives reviews etc of the latest music happenings. It also boasts about 17,000 reviews from the past, although nearly everyone I've looked for wasn't there.
South Park is well covered on the web with as many sites as your likely ever to want to look at so I'll just give you a couple http://www.comedycentral.com/ is the official site and http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/Alley/2372/southpar.htm is just one of the unofficial sites. These provide plenty of downloads and loads of other good stuff.
Ever bought a book on line? if your thinking of it try Amazon. There's two different stores one being in the U.K. and the other from America. The U.K. store http://amazon.co.uk will deliver in Britain in a couple of days but the U.S. store http://amazon.com will take a few weeks. So why bother with the U.S. store I hear you say, simple, for certain books the U.S. store is a damn site cheaper even with the extra shipping charges. Both stores are very easy to both search and buy.
Want to buy CD's at a reasonable price? Well there's now a couple of sites, my favourite being http://www.cd-wow.com you can also use http://www.play.com both sites sell CD's for £8.99 with free delivery. For CD's that may be a bit more unusual try Amazon, you'll pay more but you will get anything and everything.
There is probably more and there will be in the future. This page will be updated
