Amiga-related
- The Aminet The largest source of software available anywhere; not just for the Amiga, but for any machine. Whats more, it's almost all public domain. Even better, you can download 6-Tris+ and Frontal Assault from there: have look in the game/2play directory!
- Czech Amiga News Lots of news about everything happening on the Amiga. Updated almost every day.
- Amiga.org Superb source of Amiga news. Updated regularly.
- The Amiga Web Directory An easy and convenient way to find Amiga-related sites across the 'net. Even more comprehensive that this list! Also has a nice news section.
- The Amiga Web Network Another assortment of Amiga sites, but with a better search engine (I think).
- Amiga Extreme Amiga games site concentrating on news about the latest 3d games.
- Amiga Flame Long running Amiga games news site.
- Amiga Nutta Excellent Amiga games news site.
- Amiga.com Look here for the official information on Gateway's plans for our beloved computer.
- Amiga Active Amiga Active is the Phoenix that has sprouted from the ashes of CU Amiga. Controversially for a print magazine, their website is actually rather good.
- The Amiga pages A really good Amiga-dedicated site; reviews, news and CDs. Tip-top.
- Phase 5 Homepage Phase 5 have been loyally been supplying excellent Amiga hardware add-ons for many years, but have made a habit of announcing super-Amigas that never get past the drawing board. Their latest is the [insert name here] which, as usual, looks very promising.
- Pure Amiga Another good 'net site. Good news pages and an extensive library of reviews.
- 5th Dimension Licenceware A fine source of quality Amiga licenceware. Includes the excellent Blobz AGA from Apex Systems (who, contrary to popular opinion, have nothing to do with Apex Designs). You can even buy the software on-line!
- Computer Graphics Programming Not particularly Amiga-related, but if you're into real-time computer graphics (as I am), and you need some extra information, this could be the site for you.
- SASG International SASG have done a fantastic service to the Amiga community, releasing such legendary products as 'MagicWB' and 'MUI'. Register them on-line now!
Search engines
- AmiCrawler Directory The Amiga's best WWW search engine. Search the 'net for Amiga sites relating to your particular interest.
- HotBot Dependable search engine. If this can't find what your looking for, the chances are that you've spelt it wrong.
- Yahoo The most popular WWW general search tool. Lots of categorisation, which is a good thing if you only know roughly the kind of thing that you're looking for.
- AltaVista This is my favourite search tool, since it offers the best options for complex searches, and is bloomin' fast. Most of the time, anyway.
Humour
- Why Windoze 95 Sucks An amusing and highly informative page all about what makes Win95 as mind-numblingly crap as it is. Allegedly.
- Ian's Brain This is really strange. It's some guy's homepage, but it's one of the most popular sites on the 'net; and you can see why. Go on, have a look.
- Mr. Edible Starchy Tuber Head Homepage Translation: Mr. Potato Head. Very funny, and has won loads of awards. If you haven't seen this before, have a look now!
- The Exploding Head Page Fed up with Tom Hanks? Annoyed by Bill Gates? Click here to see their heads explode in glorious technicolour!
- Elizabethan Curse Generator Insult yourself, your friends and even your family; in Elizabethanese, as you probably guessed.
- Light Bulb Jokes Lots of light bulb jokes. Most of them seem to be anti-Microsoft, so it must be good.
- The Humour Files A very extensive collection of jokes; every style you could possibly imagine, and then some.
- The Useless Button Universe Make your own buttons! Look at other people's buttons! Gasp as clicking on them does absolutely nothing whatsoever!
- The Dilbert Zone Dilbert is one of those classic comics that has an almost cult-like following. Never really caught on over here, but it really ought to!
There was a computing student,
His mind, it gradually went;
Flibble flibble wurble ga-goo boo.
Na-na-ni ba-domanicarrot.
