Most of the time I just google for it, hwoever if it is more specific I use either answers.com or wikipedia. What about you? I am thinking in broad terms.

looking at my bookmarks...other than the ones you already mentioned...
http://dictionary.reference.com/ for spelling and definitions
http://scholar.google.com/ and http://www.engineeringvillage2.org for academic papers (not much use to most though ;) )
for directions in the uk (some to bits of europe too): googlemaps, streetmap, multimap, theAA, RAC
various hardware review sites. tomshardware, anandtech, firingsquad
various news sites. timesonline, bbc, theregister
...oh, and forums are good - dMw, HeXuS.net

but mostly google :rolleyes:

Thanks a bunch.

I use scholar.google as well (working on my MA in int. management).

For directions in Europe I use map24.co.uk.

I like the news mail from //www.wiseeye.com adjusted to my own cues, and the ability to search all those newspapers for free!

i use google for most things and ask for more specifc uk stuff. Goggle has just about all i need.


I came into this world with nothing,
through careful management I\'ve got most of it left.

I used to know everything and didn't need the internet.

Since I got married however, I've found that I'm a dipsh!t who uses goooogle to find the G spot  :D
