Name some that I should go to. I’m trying to expand my horizons…
Awesome in what sense? Design? Functionality? Content? Technical merit?
If you are into birding try this link.
It’s a set of camera views on the Kodak Tower building at their headquarters in Rochester New York. The cameras are trained on a falcon nesting box. There are two peregrine falcons who have nested there for years. It’s open 24/7, there are links to information about peregrines in general. Just now there is always one of the birds there, as they are incubating their eggs. There are five eggs, which is extraordinary for falcons. There’s also a discussion board to talk about the birds, in which many people post links to other birdcams.
If you want to expand your horizons to include art (i.e. painting), this site really is awesome:
A real treat.
And, for a nice survey of great photographers and their photos, try:
Check out Diane Arbus.
Yeah it is an abstract request- I guess by ‘awesome’ I mean a site that’s so unique you couldn’t imagine being w/o, like SD (even though I know there’s none quite like it 
), or Japander or some of the wierd stuff off bored.com; I don’t know, I should know more cool sights than I do, b/c I’m college age and it’s what we do.
i feel you on this one, it is what we do

Oh…Audio too. Many live shows by bands.
The Dead have more than 2000 there.
I find the Astronomy Picture of the Day Archive pretty interesting.
This sitehas pictures of local weather and sights posted by amateur photographers from all over the world. Some of the pictures are just beautiful.
Baker, the peregrincam is awesome! I love it!
Mad Monarchs is a really beautifully designed website showcasing all those egocentric, megalomaniac, or just plain peculiar royals in history. Hours of fun for the whole family!
I think these are fairly obvious, still --where I spend a large part of my internet time.

You should try the stumbleupon toolbar. Hit the button and go to a random website recommended by other stumblupon users.
I’ve been using it on Firefox, and found some cool stuff.

I love Ze Frank! His Dance Lessons are a must for the modern metrosexual.
And his predate confidence builder was a classic!
This Place! has the best discussion and finding out any bizarre question you have!
Lonely Planet is amazing. Their Worldguide is awesome - it tells you literally everything about every country in the world. Culture, history, traveler’s facts, special events, you name it. That website is why I’m so awesome at geography!
Also: MySpace is pure crack. It rivals the SDMB in terms of crack-ness. Only create a profile if you are looking to waste a giant chunk of time every day for the rest of forever. Oh and you’ll talk to some really cool people too. Their forums are fun, and aren’t as full of crazy OMG teh internet!!11!!1! kids as you would think.
