Hey everyone... what websites can you not live without and equally think the rest of us should know about?

I find that sometimes it's really helpful to share a few gems found on the net because sites you think everyone else knows about... they don't!

I found this one: http://www.vouchercodes.com/
It's really good for checking to see if there are any voucher codes before making an online purchase!

And for gamers www.movietyme.com

Enjoy xxx

*cough* not that Aled.info or any of the associated users of Aled.info, aledhaydnjones.com or chrismoyles.net condone using said torrents for illegal activity *cough*

I have no idea why, but I have the need to write disclaimers and stuff recently - rather odd :?

Torrents aren't illegal anyway (under any circumstances), so I wouldn't worry about it.

Could you care to explain why? Copy write confuses me.

Torrents don't contain any copyrighted materials, they only contain meta-information and checksums which aren't copyrighted and therefore isn't illegal to host or download.
