DonationCoder.com - Our Favorite Websites

For those who want to keep up with the intersection of technology and law/politics, Techdirt is the perfect website.
The site features original writing, updated multiple times per day, offering perspective on current legal and political issues that involve technology.
The posts are written by people who know what they are talking about, but the writers don't take themselves too seriously, and write in a way that is accessible to the layperson.
The entire site is a testament to the value of presenting information in a clean, structured, no-nonsense way.

It's impossible not to love Instructables, the website where amateur do-it-yourselfers post visual tutorials on how to make just about anything you could imagine.
Now if you're interests are focused on a narrow domain -- for example if you're interested in knitting, painting, electronics, etc., then you're going to find better websites for tutorials in your chosen area with content created by people with professional-level skills. That's not what instructables is about.
But if you're tastes are eclectic, and you like meeting fellow amateurs and dabblers, the charm and friendliness and sheer variety of the tutorials at Instructables is a joy to behold.
If you have kids, and they get bored -- get on the computer and go to the Instructables website, and you're bound to find something fun to make.

There are a ton of websites competing to offer you a daily helping of new and unusual discoveries on the internet, but few can hold a candle to BoingBoing, which sets the standard for coming up with new interesting items every day that you won't find anywhere else.
BoingBoing is short on business, law, politics, and slapstick humor -- and instead focuses on under-appreciated artists and creators, and on bringing the obscure to the public.

gHacks is one of a handful of wonderful websites that has always been friendly to, and supportive of, independent software authors.
The site has been mentioned hundreds of times on our forum, and they've featured many of the software utilities made by the members here.
Truly one of our favorite sites for discovering software.

Freewaregenius is another one of our favorite websites for discovering new software.
The site has expanded its focus in recent years -- evolving from covering just freeware software to a variety of web and mobile technologies, but the site has remained one of the best places to discover new free software.
It's one of the most frequently linked to sites on our forum, and some of their more recent long comparative reviews of software have been invaluable.
