“Damn Interesting” Website for Labor Day Holiday
If you haven’t visited Damn Interesting, or the list where I found it, PC Magazine’s The Top 100 Undiscovered Web Sites, (thanks to Tom Mighuel at Inter Alia for the lead), then the Labor Day holiday weekend is a good time to visit (unless you’re in a lounge chair with a good book, in which case, don’t move!).
