If you’re like me and like to browse around the internet for all kinds of things you may find some of the following interesting.
- Probably where I first started many years ago when looking for freeware and shareware. There is a huge resource of tools, gizmos etc. It used to keep me content for hours.
- If you like photography of the living world you’ll like this site. I have spent a great deal of time looking through the content with no real bad reports yet.
- This site contains pictures taken by the space telescope. Good for alternative desktop wallpaper etc.
- Well worth a look. I’ve even had comments recommended a few times.
- I’m not too hot on putting too many photographs on the internet. This site allows for sharing images and limiting who sees what. There quite a few active communities. For example. I occasionally submit photographs to sites associated with the guardian.co.uk and telegraph.co.uk.
- If you worry about where you click this may give you more confidence. Simple, small application with green ticks and red crosses.
- The guy who runs this site is a genius. It looks as if he’s put a great deal of effort in to putting the site together. Not all his ideas are simple. They provoke thought though.
- If you’re interested in 3d molecular structure, you may find this page interesting. A huge amount of technology associated with biological, medicinal investigation and more come from just studying molecules held on this database. It’s amazing the scale of ideas/solutions generated from such tiny “in silico” 3d frameworks.

- Bioinformatics on a grand scale. The protein folding problem as approached by Playstation 3 and Stanford University. Clever stuff. I can tell you that you don’t need to be connected to the internet for this to work a majority of the time.
