Steven's Bookmarks

Here's a collection of excellent links from hardware manager Steven Feldman, with comments by him. All of the links below were tested and found working in July 2010:

• Gmail
  In my opinion, Google's email client is among the best email available, and it's totally free. It also includes an online office suite, full calendar, contact management, and RSS reader -- all free and well-designed.

• Wikipedia
• How Stuff Works
  I do a lot of reading on these websites and this is where I direct clients and volunteers for working knowledge on a subject.

• Craigslist Philadelphia
  If you're new to the internet, you should quickly learn of the most popular, free, and easy-to-use online classifieds out there.

• Technically Philly
• Geekadelphia
  Here's where I keep up with technology happenings in Philadelphia.

• Yelp Philadelphia
  A wonderful site for finding any type of business and reading people's opinions about them.

• Slashdot
  National technology happenings.

• The Consumerist
  I like keeping up with national consumer issues, such as cell phone service, product recalls, good (or bad) corporate citizenship, etc.

• Fail Blog
• Stuff White People Like
  When I need to laugh.

• Ubuntu
• Ubuntu Forums
  Linux, particularly Ubuntu Linux, is a free, safe, easy, and modern alternative to windows or MacOS. Works on almost any computer! The first link is to learn about and download Ubuntu, the second is a place where your questions can be answered (or you can find the answer to your question if someone already asked).
