A few places to visit

So, during my time surfing the web and looking at some sites, I have found some that I find to be invaluable. I'll put together a small listing now for you and add to it when I have more time.


Virtual Earth - What is this place? Well, it's Citysearch, Google, everything, all in one. In the left header, just type in the type of place you are looking for (lunch, food, etc.), in the right field, type in the city or your exact address. The program will then return all surrounding locations that match that search and plot them on the map for you. I used this program yesterday to find a subway sandwich shop near Smith and Wesson. Thanks Steve for showing us all.

AOL Web IM - Yes folks that’s right, you no longer need to install AOL IM on your computer. This is an applet that will run off IE or Foxfire that will load your buddy list and looks exactly like the downloaded version of AOL IM. This is an awesome program for those that travel and even those that might use multiple computers.

Classic 80's Arcade - This nifty site allows you to play many of the classic 80's arcade and Atari games from that decade, all with nothing loaded on your machine. As long as you have Java or Shockwave, you're good to go.

Wine Searcher - Ever have that great bottle of wine at a restaurant and couldn't find it in a store? Well this site can help locate any stores in your area that might have that bottle. It isn't 100% but this little buddy can help you from traveling to all the stores in your area.

Smack the Penguin - Yes folks, it is what it sounds like. Enjoy. Upload your best screenshot for the family to see.

Pig Latin - Everway antway otay earnlay owhay otay eakspay igpay atinlay

Asian Curser Farmer -Let's see what your high score is. The point of the game is to keep your curser from being nabbed by the farmer. BTW - You must keep your curser in the blue range in order to keep the score going.
