Websites
Anything interesting or inspiring. Useful how-to-do-it places. Post each site as an individual message, just like the blogs section.

Blogs
I know lots of blogs are connected, but if you find a really good one, post it here so we can all visit. Post each one as a new topic to make them easier to find and to comment on, A big list on one post may mean some don't get the attention they deserve.

Books
We all have lots of these, so post here about what's worth having, and what's not.
|
Shops
Online sellers and real shops.

The Pinboard
