My bookmark shelf
Behold, my bookshelf of webbed sites. Out of all the pages on this site, this one recieves the most of my attention. I'm always doing something here, whether I'm adding new links or replacing dead ones with archive.org URLs.
Many of my lovely webbed sites are old, and at times downright decrepit. But their information is valuable, and they motivate me to stay curious and keep learning. For the best effect, read these in a candlelit chamber. Oh, and add a blanket and a hot drink while you're there.
