Genre: News
Why it's the Best: Fark.com is the king of News on the internet. It works by users submitting news links and witty headlines for them, which then get put onto a list to be reviewed and placed on the main page. Fark has news about anything and everything, weird news, important news, politics, sports, you name it fark has it. Also, to the right of each news headline is a topic that users can post in to discuss the news article.
Genre: Archived TV, Movies, Documentaries
Why It's The Best: Have you ever been frustrated when trying to find an episode of your favorite TV show online? Look no further, because theres a 95 percent chance that TV Links has got you covered. From new shows to old, American to British, shows you've never heard of to shows you can't stop hearing about, TV Links has it all. Its easy to maneuver and unlike most TV web sites does not have a billion ads placed anywhere and everywhere.
Genre: Archived TV, Movies, Documentaries
Why It's The Best: If you have a chronic web surfing problem, chances are that you get bored easily online. Even with the help of such amazing sites as Fark and TV Links you just can't seem to find enough to do online. Well look no further and prepare to develop a sleep disorder when you get the stumbleupon toolbar for stumbleupon.com. It allows you to pick from your favorite topics and then stumble through random web sites of those topics by clicking the stumble button. Also, stumble upon lets you give web sites thumbs up or thumbs down, and if it has not been added to their list yet then you can add it yourself! I personally have found many great web sites on stumble upon, including many on this list.
Genre: Streaming TV, Movies, Music
Why It's The Best: TVU Player has some of the best streaming channels available on any players out there. At the time of this post it has streaming TV channels like Comedy Central, Spike TV, Fox News, and Nickelodeon just to name a few. It also has many Asian TV channels and channels that stream old TV or cartoons such as South Park. While the advertisements on the site and the player itself can be slightly annoying, as soon as you go full screen it removes them all. For people who do not have cable/satellite television this is a blessing!
Genre: Computer Software
Why It's The Best: File hippo has all the best free software programs listed by category with details about how to use them and what they are. Sick of paying for your Anti Virus software, Anti Spyware, Microsoft office? Need to find a better browser, Audio/Video player, instant messenger? File Hippo has the best free alternatives to programs that you should never have to pay for. Best of all, they are FREE.
Genre: Torrents
Why It's The Best: If you do not know what torrents are then you can ignore this one. If you know what torrents are, you can send presents to me accordingly. This is the ultimate torrent search engine, searching the top 14 torrent sites and listing their results by whatever categories you can think of. Most recent, most seeders/leachers, torrent size and search engine. It needs no further explanation.
Genre: List of web sites with TV Shows, Documentaries, Movies
Why It's The Best: For starters, it has TV Links on it! The reason I included it on this list though is for the people who can't find their favorite show on TV Links, but do not want to give up. OV Guide is the place to go to find newer episodes of your favorite show that aired a day or two before, but you have to hunt around different sites on there. My favorites are bedroommedia.com and sidereel.com.
Genre: Temporary Email
Why It's The Best: Sometimes the web site has the best description of their site. "This web site provides you with disposable e-mail addresses which expire after 15 Minutes. You can read and reply to e-mails that are sent to the temporary e-mail address within the given time frame." Also, if you need more time you can just give yourself 15 more minutes. Never have to give out your own email address again, or create another junk address, this web site does it for you!
