These are Internet resources I found particularly interesting. Now, there are many, many more good and useful web site. These are just some that I think fill some gaps in common knowledge and provide some things that might be more difficult to find just by searching, even if someone knows what to search for. I begin this list with my version of July 2022. I will likely add to it from time to time without making a separate blog entry, so if you care, you can check back from time to time.
