Here is a list of sites that merit your attention, simply because I deem them worthy.
- Mr. Cranky Rates the Movies — The inspiration for this site.
- Lying in the Gutters — My favorite comic book news and rumors column.
- Paperback Swap — Read a lot of real books? Exchange them for different books with people from all over the world.
- Title Trader — Similar to Paperback Swap, Title Trader has lists for CDs, DVDs, and VHS tapes in addition to books.
- Crimson Moon — A free persistent browser-based game (PBBG) with a plot similar to the Underworld movies. It’s a fun way to kill a few hours each week.
