I was surfing the information super, super highway this morning when I had a thought. For the millions or billions of pages on the interweb, I probably really only need a few. I came to this idea after reading this article about "stuff" which I found through this interesting music blog.
I've also found myself going to Wikipedia a lot more lately. Not because I'm itching to learn about things you'd find in a typical encyclopedia, but more because if I am not looking to purchase something, consume media like pictures, video, and audio, or actually interact with people/things, Wikipedia often gives me the best information and it is very comprehensive even on things as small as a band's album.
Anyway, here is my short list of sites I'd like to frequent. The rest of my internetly posessions will get tossed away. It doesn't mean I won't stop by your favorite sites and admire your internet, but I don't want mine to be so cluttered anymore. Can you recommend anything I'm missing?
Wikipedia: I am looking for information about something
Indaba: I am looking to interact with people and media related to music.
Google: I know exactly what I'm looking for but not exactly what I want back or I want a bunch of different options relating to what I'm looking for.
Facebook: I'm looking for information about someone I know, or someone I don't.
YouTube: If I want to see videos.
Amazon.com: I want to buy new things
eBay: I want to buy used things
Climate Culture: You haven't heard of this one yet, but it is where I will soon manage my impact on the environment and really understand what's going on with the climate change.
Pandora: I don't feel like sifting through my music to find something or I am looking for new music
Flickr: I want to see friends photos or photos by other great photographers.
What am I missing?

As long as we're plugging sites/services, Remede Naturopathics (www.remedenaturopathics.com), a high-quality clinic for natural medicine frequented by a lot of artists and musicians. Has a page, "About Natural Medicine" that offers a few of alternative medicine resources. It'll be expanding later this year to include more info, both on resources and conditions.
