Part of uncovering great and interesting sites is to take advantage of finding them no matter where they come from on the web right?

PC Magazine has an article where they are highlighting The Top 100 Undiscovered Web Sites.

The editors have broken down their list into the following categories:

• Apps and Services
• Fun and Games
• Health and Science
• Info, Search, and Reference
• Lifestyle
• Money and Real Estate
• Music
• News
• Photo
• Shopping
• Social Networking
• Technology
• Travel and Maps

Every single category is loaded with great, helpful and interesting websites. I’d love to hear what some of your favorites are in each category. Which ones are you using? Which ones should I be immediately saving to my list of bookmarks for future and repeated use?

One thing I’ve been looking for on the article though is a link to a zip file of all the sites that you can quickly load into your favorites. They used to do that on previous articles didn’t they? Or was that PC World’s version of their lists?

Uncover an undiscovered website of your own with PC Magazine.

UPDATE: Here’s the link to download the ZIP file with all the sites.

I’m an on-again-off-again fan of John C. Dvorak. I regularly listen to TWiT and CrankyGeeks and Tech5 podcasts that he’s on regularly. Sometimes he offends me, but every time he at least makes me think a little harder about a topic.

I came across this recent column, Turn Off the Lights! of his in PC Magazine where he shares his opinion on the “green” movement. I’m all for saving the environment as much as we can, but I’m also for intelligent understanding of what our real impact is, not just what the popular movement of the minute seems to be.

What bothers me most about the green movement is the arrogance—the greener-than-thou attitude—of many participants. Combine these people with the dummies who just go along with the flock regarding what is best for mankind—er, personkind—and you have a dunce brigade telling everyone what to do.

The question then comes to light, excuse the pun, what are you really doing to impact the environment?

PC Magazine has released their collection of the Top 101 Websites for 2006. They always do a pretty good job with this list, and although not many websites surprise me, or are ones I haven’t heard of, they always seem to remind me of some websites that are great and I’d just forgotten about.

One of the things they do that I enjoy is they organize them into different groups and categories like:

• Apps - PC & Mobile
• Business & Finance
• Careers
• Computing
• Consumer Electronics & Photography
• Health
• Information, Search & Reference
• Lifestyle, Entertainment & Fun
• News
• Oddities & Gaming
• Shopping
• Travel

They also put all the sites together and make them available as a single download file that will install all of them in your favorites. A handy resource if you’re like me and pretty much keep every great site you’ve come across.

Although they included some blogs in the various categories, I’m kind of surprised they didn’t have a separate category. That may be a good thing though, after all a blog is still a legitimate website.
