Very useful for anything you could be looking for
on the Dutch web. Each page (pagina) is not a website as such, but a
list of links related to that topic. Each page is hosted by a volunteer with a
particular interest in thatr subject. http://www.pagina.nl/ gives you a list of all
of the current “daughter” pages. If you have a specialised interest
yourself, and have at least 100 links, you can apply to host a page yourself.
Some examples of paginas: useful stuff like links to animal hotels and air tickets, but also links for stuff
like pizzas, Britney Spears, cat breeders, and (one of my
favourites) capybaras. You name it,
there’s a page for it.

boys! have something to aim
for!

girls! now you’ll be
able to aim for things too! www.restrooms.org/standing.html
useful for when camping and there are nettles
about...national anthems
http://www.thenationalanthems.com/
Find your favourite national anthem. My favourites are Uruguay and Senegal
– great tunes, stirring lyrics. I love San Marino’s lyrics, was
stunned by Liechtenstein’s tune, and was surprised at just how jolly Saudi
Arabia’s is. And if you don’t already know it, check out the
translation of the Dutch national anthem – rather a bizarre first
verse...urban
legends
www.urbanlegends.com dispels or confirms
myths about all sorts of things
