My favourite sites pt 1

I love to read online stuff, whether its a personal lifelog/blogs or websites/commentaries on specific interests, such as music, religion, technologies, genetics, manga, anime and etc. In fact, its my daily routine to browse through these websites before i start off my hectic work. Anyway, just to list out a few of favorites here:

1.Alex music Blog


This is a one of the most comprehensive download site for contemporary music which appeal to the mainstream, as well as those are not too contemporary such as acoustic, lounge music, jazz, celtic and other genre. For those MJ's hardcore fan out there, the download links for most of his albums can be found at the site.

2. TechXav


With the tagline "A tech blog managed by three 15 years olds", TechXav is full with Web 2.0 apps, online tips and most updated tech news. In fact Xaviers was awarded as Singapore Best Youth Blog this year, however the main author- Xavier was labeled as cocky and arrogant youth for making an outrageous statements during interview- "The Blog Awards need me more than I need them." Well, take away the controversy part, the blog is interesting and informative. For heaven sake, he is just a 15 years old teenager with hormone ranging wild in his veins and dreaming to become the next Warren Buffet. Give him a break.

3. Manga Traders


Mangatraders was a glorified dumping ground for manga lovers. It is dedicated to making English translated manga available to the world, FOC. Yes you heard me well. Anyway, I think its very much self explanatory.

4.Modern Mechanix-Yesterday's Today Tomorrow



This is the best and weirdest tech/mechanics/science site ever! Its actually a compilation of the issues of an old magazines which explained modern technology to the lay people in startling and excited ways, named Modern Mechanix. You can read all sorts of wacky creation such as Dog in sack on running board (1936), all the way to some wild crazy science theory/experiments - The earth formation theory (1923), and even the most discussed religion- Tom Cruise's Scientology (1968- The so called religion-ahem-cult is that old, can you believe it!).

To be continue...
