10 Things you ought to know about

Much like JWD's blogs on Teamliquid. :P

1. http://www.teamliquid.net/ - Best starcraft site out there with tons of coverage and a lot of other information. Allows you to play mafia, keep up in news (general section), read awesome blogs like JWD's 10 things you should know about series, etc. 

2. http://www.blogotheque.net - Awesome videos of really unique bands that just play in cities. So far, all the bands have been great, and nothing sounds better than some raw music in the streets mixing with the city sounds.

3. http://thereisnogrey.com/ - JWD's blog, great music blog if you ever need anything to listen to.

4. http://library.nu/?utm_source=redirect&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=ebooksclub.org - All the books you'll ever need. AP study books? Check. Classics? Check. Textbooks? Check. What more can you ask for?

5. http://www.blacktieguide.com/Classic/Classic_Intro.htm - The guide to being classy in a tux. Consult in case of questions for prom. :P

6. http://www.khanacademy.org/ - Videos on just about every topic dealing with math or science. Great explanations and examples. A great way to supplement learning in a topic. I used it to help self-study stats. 

7. http://www.miguelmllop.com/stories/ - Collection of really good short stories. I suggest reading through them all. I loved Salinger ones. Bananafish and De-Daumier Smith's Blue Period happen to be amongst my favorites now.

8. http://fraternite-ou-la-mort.tumblr.com/ - Another unique little blog that's about cool videos 2 brothers share with each other. It's interesting how the blog itself is basically a conversation between the two, but spaced out over video, pictures, music, and words.

9. http://gameknot.com/chess-puzzles.pl - Something educational to do when you're bored. Hey, it never hurts to learn some chess puzzles. If you solve all of them, I'm sure you'll get 2x better at chess or something. If not, uhhhh, ask Partha for tutoring.

10. http://www.cmu.edu/uls/journeys/randy-pausch/index.html - If you haven't watched this, do it. Incredibly inspiring.
