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.

UK TV Adverts "This site is intended to satisfy those who are curious about the identity of the actors and actresses who appear in or do voice-overs for British commercials. It also includes the title and recording artist for the music used in these commercials"

Sounds like a boring reference site for resolving those "what was that music" pub debates, doesn't it?

There's more to it than that. This site has extended beyond its original mission and now hosts clips from some classic UK ads (including BT's 'Ology' and the John West Salmon ad) as well as a summary of Channel 4's poll of the 100 Top Adverts of all time.

(for any Americans reading who don't already know this - UK adverts are the clever funny ones)
