1. www.stumbleupon.com
What this thread aims to be?
2. www.imdb.com
Maybe they've been paying attention to listal because they now have a list-making feature (just not as good).
3. video.google.com
Google Video. Search not just Youtube but many other video streaming sites simultaneously. Nice when a video that should be allowed under fair use has been taken down from Youtube for copyright infringement but has popped up elsewhere.
4. alternativeto.net
Find alternative software programs to the one you're using when it isn't meeting your needs.
5. www.videodb.info

14. www.myanimelist.net

15. www.anidb.net
As above and extensive and well-documented tags.
16. www.anime-planet.com
Lists and hand-picked (and explained) recommendations.
17. www.animedvice.com
No-frills site with one purpose--to recommend anime by comparing all your ratings (which you can enter manually or import from AniDB.net) with those of other users. (Only makes 10 recommendations at a time, so you have to mark some as Ignore to get others.) Like criticker.com, but for anime. Go to anime-planet.com afterward to see what other series the recommended ones are like.
18. www.filmsmash.com
Filmsmash forum for keeping up the latest news, pictures, and trailers for Asian movies. Can subscribe to movies of interest to get email updates.
19. www.lovelineshow.com
Relationship and sex advice radio show with board-certified physician (addiction medicine specialist) Dr. Drew. Also regularly has celebrity guests. Podcasts aren't free, but go to www.lovelineshow.com/trial for a free month trial. If you do subscribe, note that the default stream quality is low and you have to manually select a 128kbps version under account settings. Or listen to or capture the streaming version.
20. www.urbandictionary.com
Look up slang terms you won't find in the dictionary. Many clever and humorous user-submitted definitions you can vote on.

I think, Hyomil, that it would have been a lot better for me and asian cinema if you spent 4 votes on 2 or three asian drama sites instead of so many of them. Remember, this is a recommendation for the average user.

Finding a book to represent is still hardest part of making this list. Also changing the book is hard because my browser slows down with a 50+ list.

If you are out of votes but know more good sites you can suggest them for others to nominate.

There seem to be too many 1 vote sites and i think that is bad. What to do?
ran88dom99 13 years, 12 months ago at May 3 23:12 -
