Nothing too popular. Everyone knows about YouTube, etc... I just found a great one: https://worldradiohistory.com" rel="nofollow - https://worldradiohistory.com https://archive.org/" rel="nofollow - https://archive.org/ - Internet Archive is a non-profit library of millions of free books, movies, software, music, and more. http://www.waybackmachine.org" rel="nofollow - http://www.waybackmachine.org -- You can check websites from anytime in history! http://www.openculture.com" rel="nofollow - www.openculture.com The best free cultural & educational media on the web... Also has over 5,000 FREE movies, FREE everything - Audio, College Courses, Art Books, Textbooks, Foreign Language Lessons, Photos, and about 80 other categories.. There's always a headline story, many times about movies. They even have Directors and Actors' favorite movies.. ------------- https://www.youtube.com/c/LoyalOpposition https://www.scribd.com/document/382737647/MortSahlFan-Song-List |

This is a really cool site. I'll have to spend some time exploring it. Thanks for posting it.
I'm a really huge fan of the Internet Archive. Always something interesting to find there, especially the book collections. Other than Prog Archives and Rate Your Music, here are a few I frequent on an irregular basis, off the top of my head: Genealogy: https://www.ancestry.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.ancestry.com/ (my tree has almost 7500 people in it; I will never finish this project) https://www.myheritage.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.myheritage.com/ https://www.familytreedna.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.familytreedna.com/ https://www.newspapers.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.newspapers.com/ (I use this for obituary research, but there is a lot more on here) Baseball cards (something I started collecting in my youth): https://www.cardboardconnection.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.cardboardconnection.com/ And along with the previous site, baseball stats and history: https://www.baseball-reference.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.baseball-reference.com/ https://sabr.org/" rel="nofollow - https://sabr.org/ Science: https://www.scientificamerican.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.scientificamerican.com/ https://www.sciencenews.org/" rel="nofollow - https://www.sciencenews.org/ https://www.science.org/" rel="nofollow - https://www.science.org/ Space: https://www.nasa.gov/" rel="nofollow - https://www.nasa.gov/ https://www.esa.int/" rel="nofollow - https://www.esa.int/ The usual TV/movie sites: https://www.imdb.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.imdb.com/ https://www.rottentomatoes.com/" rel="nofollow - https://www.rottentomatoes.com/ Mostly to solve computer problems, but there's a lot more here: https://stackexchange.com/" rel="nofollow - https://stackexchange.com/ Catalog my books and e-books (bookworm alert): https://www.librarything.com/home" rel="nofollow - https://www.librarything.com/home And the obvious shopping sites when the mood strikes, like Ebay, Discogs, Wayside, LaserCD, Squidco, etc. ------------- ---------- i'm shopping for a new oil-cured sinus bag that's a happy bag of lettuce this car smells like cartilage nothing beats a good video about fractions |

Everyone knows this is the best music site. Great people, and I find that those who love prog-rock seem to have great taste in music, comedy, and so I ask the Miscellaneous stuff here, like this question :) ------------- https://www.youtube.com/c/LoyalOpposition https://www.scribd.com/document/382737647/MortSahlFan-Song-List |
