How Stuff Works: ..... Brilliant site for finding out all those things that you always wondered about. You can get lost here in picking on subject after subject while the phone bill gets bigger and bigger. Careful now.
Encyclopedia Britannica: ..... Fantastic site, totally different from the one above and another one you could spend hours visiting.
Acronym Finder: ..... Good fun here. I tried ttfn, from the old Itma days and it came back at once with 'ta ta for now'. You can generate your own acronyms too.
Biographies: ..... Not just authors but anyone from MP's to astronauts.
Wordsmith: ..... If you want some fun with anagrams then this is the place. Put a word in or a string of words and see what happens. Do check out the Hall of Fame.
Your Dictionary: .... Everything about words. Definitions, synonyms, translations, all here.
Handspeak: ..... The site for hand language. Over 3,000 signs, both American and international. Choose a word and you are shown an animated video of the word which will repeat itself over and over again if you want to learn it.
