 Seriously, the coolest music-related site I've seen.

I saw the site on self diagnosis, for some reason it reminded me of someone trying to give themselves a haircut, but they can be useful to catch something that needs to be dealt with. Some of the things on the net keep getting more amazing, I was almost going to write bizarre,, but some of the things you least expect can come in useful, it's just a matter of knowing where to look.

How Stuff Works is an extremely useful website. I've been using it for teaching English at an Austrian technical college for engineering for years. My students like this site very much.
