What are some of your favorite corners of the web? There was one site where someone was digitizing tens of thousands of newspapers all by himself, one where a couple (I think) wrote passionately about various plants... I forgot to bookmark them, my bad.
Anyway, please share your favorites and why. Not just websites, apps are good too. I am tired of going to the same websites everyday (reddit, some youtube channels...) - would be nice to discover projects that are primarily born out of passion, unlike the 99.99% of the web whose primary goal is money.
A website modeled after the old web, complete with pixelly gifs, midi music, and fandom dedicated areas. It also leads to the nostalgic trip that neocities is-- an entire website for personal pages made in the image of geocities. Although I think this particular site is hosted on yesterweb. Try the webring!
And for humor there's always the startup generator :) http://tiffzhang.com/startup/
