Set Your Inner Nerd Free...on the Web
I've been thinking recently about how I tend to deprive myself much of my inherent nerdiness, and I think that's a shame. Also, it came up in another thread that I tend to have a very narrow Internet experience these days, mainly TFP, YouTube, Facebook, and Wikipedia. I do the occasional Google search but land mostly on random websites that are specific to information I seek.
I don't really have many favourite websites, and I don't visit enough nerdy sites. I know they're out there. Whether they cover science, science fiction/fantasy, pop culture, technology, or whatever, I'm not aware of enough of them. I know there are several mainstream sites that cover these things, but are there more authoritative/elitist sites geared towards nerds like me?
My problem? I'm too book nerdy. I need to balance my other nerd aspects.
What are your favourite nerdy sites? Help a nerd out?
