Originally intended just as a good way to keep bookmarks online (in the days before del.icio.us) but has evolved into collections of things that intrigue me.....or are just plain daft.

Mostly the latter.

Banished Words List - as a lover of the English language, I particularly appreciate this list. Lake Superior State University maintain a wish-list of words which through overuse or simple superfluity really should be dropped from our lexicon.

However this year the list includes "Black Ice"which a pity since it's only been around for about 40 years (and d I knew the man who invented it).

This site also provides information about the Unicorn Hunters, a rather quixotic band that I wish I could have joined.
