Some Cool Links

Sites

• diabloii.net.  I go here every couple days to catch up on Diablo 2 related stuff.
• blizzard.com.  The company that brought you such games as StarCraft, WarCraft, and Diablo.
• the-underdogs.org.  This is the best site for abandonware.
• download.com.com.  An excellent shareware site.
• W3C HTML validator.  A neat little place where you can see if your webpage is valid html, xml, or xhtml.
• Popcap Games.  All sorts of neat little games to fritter away your time with
• Yahoo Games.  This is where I go to play online pool and bridge.
• Nabisco World.  If you want to play online games that must have been designed by people who decided to get stoned and then go on a drinking binge, this is the place to go.
• The Eye of Argon  Possibly the worst Fantasy story ever written.  There are contests at SF conventions on who can read the most of this before breaking out laughing.
• My Chessboard Page.  This page is just a chessboard I made that resizes to fill your browser window.  Note: IE sucks, and misdisplays this page.
• Red Vs. Blue.  A web-cartoon based on, and filmed entirely within, the Bungie game Halo.  This just might be the funniest thing on the web.
• Rent-A-Coder.  This is a place where coders can freelance.
• Annie's website.  This is a site I designed for her.
• The coolest forum thread ever.  I created and used the accounts Beelzebub and SonOfGod, and I created GreatBuddha and gave it to a friend, and we had fun all over the redvsblue.com forums.  I archived the thread for posterity.
• Dancing Leper Disguised As A Drunk Midget Productions.  My machinima "company".  It will make you rethink all other machinimas on the planet.

Products

• Free Browsers: Firefox, Opera and Amaya let you stay away from MacroCrap and Netscape.  Links are on my help page
• Haxial TextEdit.  A neat little plaintext editing program which I now use instead of notepad.  Only opens plaintext, but doesn't have a file size restriction and is blindingly fast.  Just be prepared to learn a new set of hotkeys.
• BS Player.  A media file player that's very good at not being choppy.  I have some divx files that only play properly in this player.
• Windows RG (Really Good Edition).  No, this is not a real release of MacroCrap WinBlows, but it is very funny.
• PuTTY.  This is an exceptional telnet/ssh client. Totally free, totally open-source.
• Bloodshed Dev-C++.  A free C++ program.  Yet another link on this page specifically for avoiding MacroCrap
• SoulSeek.  File sharing without the adware of KaZaA.  Don't believe me that kazaa has spyware?  Try to uninstall bonsai buddy.
• SuSE Linux.  SuSE claims that version 8.1 can run any WinBlows program.  I've used this linux distribution, and believe me when I say it's solid, and I prefer it to WinBlows.
• Deadly Rooms of Death is the best puzzle game I've ever played.  Visit the forums and find a dungeon I'm designing.  Hint: my forum alias is DiMono

As I find/remember more sites and utilities, I'll post them up here.
