Favorite Websites

www.amazon.com - Everybody uses this  site all the time, right?  Me too.  But have you taken advantage of the "Wish List?"  I keep track of books this way for all sorts of reasons, including for a wish list.  A great site.

www.mapquest.com - How did we get along before this site?  I use it all the time to generate directions to places.  One of the more useful parts of it freeway exit numbers in the directions.

www.yahoo.com - Although this site isn't my main seach engine any longer (Google is getting disappointing sometimes too), there is so much more to this site.  Several of the organizations I'm in store files in the briefcase making the latest versions of rosters accessible to key people.  

 www.annandaleonline.com -  Annandale Online has information about my community, and I don't think that's wonderful just because I put it all there myself.  Really.

www.griver.org - As a library card holder in the Great River Regional Library system I love being able to do a search on a book (or video or whatever) and have it sent right to the library in Annandale, just one mile from my house, and someone calls me when it arrives.  

www.walkerart.org  -  The Walker Art Museum's website stretches me even more than the actual museum.

www.imbd.com   -  Internet Movie Database - Amazing lists and search capabilities for movies.

www.ptech.wsj.com  -  Walter Mossberg, Personal Technology journalist, writes for "the technology-befuddled Everyman."  He is my guru.

www.cnet.com  -  Lots of good things in this site about computers and technology, but I especially appreciate the price comparison capabilities.

www.snopes.com  -  This Urban Legend Reference Page has all the latest legends flying around the Web, including the lowdown on which ones are true and valid (not many).  I have replied to many emails suggesting that the sender bookmark this page -- sometimes not too politely.  C'mon ...how can people still believe that Microsoft will send them hundreds of dollars for revealing their address book?

www.memotome.com - This site will send you email reminders on a one-time basis or on a regular basis.  I use it a lot.

www..wikipedia.org - Good 'ol Wikipedia.  Answers to so many questions!
