Links
These are various sites that I use or like.
Sci-fi
Ex Astris Scientia
The best Star Trek site on the web. No contest.
SFDebris
A site of video reviews of mostly Star Trek, but with lots of other sci-fi shows in there as well. Chuck Sonnenburg, the creator, is absolutely hilarious but also makes you think, often spending additional videos to discuss some of the concepts raised in the episodes he reviews.
The Babylon 5 Tech-Manual
The online technical manual for Babylon 5. Ubercool geek resource.
IFIS - Institute For Impure Science
The website for Royal Holloway's science-fiction (and fantasy and horror and cult and etc. etc.) society.
First TV Drama
This site is devastatingly funny if you're one of the good number of Trek fans who feels that Enterprise is a bit of a waste, or rather, a carefully-calculated moneygrabbing scheme by Berman and Braga, the producers. The actual purpose of the site is to promote two television series that Richard Whettestone, the site's author, is trying to get made. However, to show that he really knows how to make a really good sci-fi series, he's pointing out the flaws and missed opportunities in every Enterprise episode. And he does it in a rather AMIGA POWER-esque style. Look, just go and read it, will you? The man's a genius. (Oh, and do support his effort, too. I believe he can do what he says he will.)
Furry
Avians.net
One of the focal points of the Feathery fandom, and the host of this web site.
WikiFur (English)
Wikifur (multilingual)
Like Wikipedia, but specifically for Furry topics. And not necessarily encyclopaedic.
Shifti
Not strictly furry, but has some furry content. This is an wiki-based archive for transformation stories.
Lagomorphic
Bits 'n' Bob-stones
Loganberry's jolly nice site, almost entirely focused on Watership
Down. Including Frithaes!, a guide to the rabbit-language Lapine. E lay vao-nyt!
Evolution, antievolution, and antiantievolution
Pharyngula
The blog of Professor PZ Myers, a very, very sharp and clever man who effortlessly makes idiots of all stripes look ridiculous, simply by being reasonable.
Google Groups: talk.origins
This is the web's most well known and possibly most popular group for discussing evolution and antievolution topics. It's a mix of educated people, hit and run trolls, and total cranks with no grasp of logic. They're the funniest.
The talk.origins archive
At one time this was a thriving site full of articles rebutting attacks on evolution theory. Since an attack by a hacker, however, input has dropped almost to zero. It's still full of interesting info, however. Includes the Index to Creationist Claims, a huge list of rebuttals to almost every creationist argument.
The Panda's Thumb
A forum tracking the antievolution movement, like talk.origins, but less hectic and more on topic.
Webcomics
Order of the Stick
Quite simply one of the finest comics on the internet, even if you're unfamiliar with its subject matter. OOTS is a story set in a world which plays by the rules of Dungeons and Dragons. Originally it was just going to be a D&D-joke-a-week comic, but it evolved into an exciting and quite detailed story, and has simply fantastic humour. Most of the laughs are character-based rather than D&D-based, although it does take time to point out some of the absurdities of the game on occasion.
Misfile
Misfile is a comic about a boy, named Ash, who thanks to a filing mistake by a stoned angel, is turned into a girl overnight. Unfortunately, history rewrites itself to match, so that only he knows he's supposed to be a boy. While it sounds like every other transgender webcomic, it has nice plot details (when it's actually on plot) and well-realised characters.
The Wotch
The Wotch is a long-running comic about... well, it's basically a vehicle for all the wacky transformation hijinks you can think of, but it is a fun read as well. The art's not very good, but the stories are. On hiatus since about 2009, may be dead.
Angel Moxie
Angel Moxie is a rarity among webcomics... it's finished! The story wrapped up years ago, so you can feel safe in reading through the archives from beginning to end. What's it about? It's a basic magical girl story, with cute art and fun characters. It's not special, it's just a very nice read.
Sparkling Generation Valkyrie Yuuki (WARNING: Adult content)
This is also a magical girl story, but there the similarity with Angel Moxie ends. SGVY is more parodic, and doesn't try to hide the fact that it's essentially transgender porn. :) It's about a boy who, of course, is turned into a girl - a Japanese-style magical girl at that, with a valkyrie theme. It has very nice art, although be warned it is rather adult.
Zodiac
Furry webcomic about a zodiac-themed team of superheroes. If, like me, you like astrological themes, superheroes, and anthro animals, then it's worth a read.
Roguelikes
CrawlWiki
The wiki for the roguelike game Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup.
NethackWiki
The most valuable resource for players of the game Nethack, this wiki tells you everything you could possibly want to know about the game.
Miscellaneous
AP2
The AMIGA POWER Tribute Site of Champions, but not on the Amiga. Unless you are, somehow, viewing this on an Amiga.
World of Stuart
The website of computer games journalist Stuart Campbell, who used to write for Amiga Power. Unfortunately the newer content on his site is subscription only.
20Q.net
An impressive online artificial intelligence experiment. The player may challenge a computer program to a game of 'Twenty Questions', which involves thinking of something, and answering twenty questions about it from the program, which is trying to guess what it is.
lernu!
An online aid to learning Esperanto. English learners may find their Esperanto to English dictionary useful. (Esperanto dictionaries for other languages are also available). Incidentally, lernu! is simply Esperanto for 'learn!'.
That Guy With The Glasses
A site full of hilarious critiques of stuff. Highlights include the Nostalgia Critic and Nostalgia Chick, who review movies and tv shows from their (and possibly your) childhoods, and Linkara (who reviews comic books).
Agony Booth
In a similar vein to the above site, the Agony Booth completely recaps bad movies (and sometimes tv shows) from beginning to end, criticising them on the way.
TV Tropes
Did you ever notice that some things ALWAYS happen in tv shows? Other people have too, and that's what TV tropes is for. Be warned - this site will suck you in for hours or possibly days, and will reveal the creative process behind fiction. If you don't want to know, turn back!
Zero Punctuation
Ben 'Yahtzee' Croshaw reviews the latest video games with an extremely cynical attitude. Very funny, especially for me since Yahtzee is an old-school gamer like myself. TV Tropes said that he has credited Amiga Power as one of his inspirations, but I can't find a source for that.
