Friends' sites
- Rabid Sheep Studios: Sheepy is a terrific person and a terrific friend, but, alas, not terrific at keeping her website up to date.
- R. Bail dot net: Good writing, and home to the Night City project. Go, and read 31 Days.

Entertaining blogs
- Pharyngula—the blog of the biologist P.Z. Myers

Webcomics
- Something Positive—harsh, cynical, offensive, hilarious and moving.
- Queen of Wands—over, alas, but go read the archives.
- The Perry Bible Fellowship—frequently offensive but never dull.
- xkcd—if you get them, they're hilarious. Have you ever seen anything as side-splitting as this or this?

Web design
- The W3C HTML reference
- The W3C CSS2 reference
- A list of HTML entities
- Tidy, a validator extension for Firefox (this site should pass it …)
- Firebug. The Firefox extension for web developers, it not only performs detailed validation and error reporting; it also allows you to inspect and modify the DOM tree, change CSS properties on the fly, and much more.
- Chris Pederick's Web Developer toolbar is the…other Firefox extension for web developers. The reason why I love it is simple: It allows you to view generated source, when you create HTML on the fly with scripts, which makes it a hell of a lot easier to debug dynamic web pages than merely looking at the static HTML and script source.
Programming
- The Python language homepage
- The C++ FAQ Lite; more good questions and even better answers than you can shake a stick at
- SGI's C++ Standard Template Library reference (covers mostly everything except the I/O library)
- cplusplus.com's Standard Library reference (only has the I/O library at the moment, but goes rather well with the above)
- Boost C++ Libraries
