Links

These are some of my favorite links, in no particular order. If you have some other cool links please let me know.

Hardcore TV Archives	This is the source of all those video clips above. Many more are archived here. You now need to subscribe to igninsider to view the archives. Bummer.
Comming Attractions	Great resource for the latest news on upcomming and rumoured movies.
TrekWeb	News on all things TREK. Covers all current Star Trek incarnations.
Pete's Movie Page	Huge online repository for released movie trailers.
The Onion	Lighthearted news site. Good read when you need to kill time.
Toronto Webcam	Live Images from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. My hometown.
How Stuff Works	Self explanatory. I especially like their animations for nuclear bombs.
The Encyclopedia of Arda	If you are a Lord of The Rings fan, you know what this is. A GREAT resource for the history of middle earth.
