I thought I would make here a list of some of the more interesting and useful websites I've run across.

This is the US navy safety center's photo of the week. You can guess at the subjects. Some are rather awe inspiring, in a 'I can't believe she/he did that!!' sort of way.

http://www.belfry.com/
Massive listing of online comics. Don't go there unless you have hours to kill and a braodband internet connection. Note that some of the comics are not safe for work, notice the little codes after each comic link.

Yay for usefulness :)

  I think a nifty feature for LJ (or some other online blog/homepage thingie) would be a way to export your bookmarks, or at least a subset of them that you find helpful/amusing/etc., to a web interface where someone else can download them into a bookmark subfolder, and walk through them at their leisure. Just an idea...
