The Linkless List

The LINKLESS List

The web is full of linkpages, most of which are quite useless and meaningless, because half the links have gone old and because search engines are the most efficient way to find anything interesting anyway (except for visiting regular good sites). Webrings I can understand, but typical linklists everyone (including myself, irony noted) has on their homepages are insignificant.
So, instead of such page (or actually besides one) I'm making a list of names for You to try with Google or AltaVista or whichever You prefer.
I will primarily try to name things most of You have never heard of, but there are also many familiar names here as a strong advice from me to get to know them if You haven't already.
