Software Reference

I thought it would be fun to put together a little list of URLs that technical, geeky people like me would find useful. It's going to change over time, but there will always be ten of them: one in, one out.

Here we go:

• http://www.slashdot.org – "News for nerds. Stuff that matters."
• http://www.snopes.com – Snopes urban legends reference
• http://www.google.com – Google. It's not a perfect search engine, but it's the best we've got! Okay, I'll cheat a little bit by including a second link – http://code.google.com – under the Google banner
• http://en.wikipedia.org – Wikipedia. It's not a perfect online encyclopaedia, but it's the best we've got!
• http://www.archive.org – The Internet Archive
• http://support.microsoft.com – Microsoft Knowledge Base
• http://www.hiveminder.com – Online task-management tool with proper dependency handling
• http://www.safaribooksonline.com – Online bookshelf of technical books
• http://wwww.joelonsoftware.com – Words of wisdom from Joel Spolsky
• http://mindprod.com/jgloss/jgloss.html – Canadian Mind Products Java & Internet Glossary
