US, uses LCSH (Library of Congress Subject headings), gives a pile of bibliographic records on the subjects listed. Index of Science Tracer Bullets Online. Listed by title (Science Tracer Bullet - Science Reference Services, Library of Congress) Found the name of it a bit suspect, though. Why do you need to call them tracer bullets, for fucks sake?


Cheers to Librarians' Index to the Internet for this one.

"IncyWincy searches 46 million pages by crawling the 4 million pages found in the Open Directory Project. IncyWincy also delves deep into the Invisible Web with its unique "Universal Search Engine" that searches automatically into 1 million web search portals"

apparently. It also searches cached pages, which can be handy.


Creative Commonsis a load of groovy stuff along the lines of asserting the right to be identified as the creator of a thing, without stopping people being able to get hold of it. Kind of. Have a look. Links to content with various types of rights asserted, some of which you can sample and play with.


Anthropology Collection Database was found via Neat New Stuff on the Net for january 16th, as was this bar code art site, this site of US forestry images and Nick's Mathematical Puzzles .

Knowledge Hound, The How-To Hunter! (there's some good stuff in the science category) was listed in Marylaine's 9th January list.


Should also include Free Range Librarian: Getting Started with RSS cos i'm an idiot. LISFeeds.com Librarian RSS Feeds goes with the above for library shit.


While I'm going through me bookmarks, don't think i've listed Boing Boing: A Directory of Wonderful Things yet, which is somewhat remiss.

A directory of cached pages is Ay-Up.com, via which was found All Movie Guide which indexes films, directors, actors, and general filmic stuff, by category, so the 'more like this' kind if search is easy. Nice.
A couple of nice ones from LII - New This Week this week;

GODCHECKER : Your Guide To The Gods. Mythology with a twist! Some of the artwork is a bit Koehnline-a-like, but wanting to be like James Koehnline is maybe nae a bad thing. Haven't really had an extensive look through to check it for mythologic accuracy, but thats not really what you'd go there for.


Home Wine 101 has some homebrew recipes. US site, again waiting to be checked out properly- you know what these people are like with their weird palates and ways of measuring things.
