Wikipedia has this list of Latin phrases. (What don’t they have?)
It lists direct English translations of common phrases, such as “veni vidi vici” and “et cetera”. There’s also many that I’ve never heard… so if you’re looking to fill your brain with some potentially useless knowledge - here’s another good resource!

Here is a cool interactive website. Digg stated that it was a French attempt at Web 3.0.

[CLICK HERE] - Homeless Shelter Concepts
Pretty cool concepts. This site shows convertible public structures that homeless people could use as shelter. Which I kind of laugh, because I thought they already do, but apparently, some cities have started to design park benches so that it would be very difficult to sleep on them.
Here is a convertible park bench idea:

[CLICK HERE] - Urban Tent Dwellings
Here is some cool pics of people living in the city in tents. This one really caught my eye. It looks like a car with a tarp over it, it is actually just a frame made out of pipe covered with a tarp.

Here is a site that shows Apple/Mac computers from 1976 until present day. Pretty cool to see how far they have come. Funny thing is, I remember working on some of the earlier models when I was in Elementary.

For those of you who have worked with HTML before, it can get pretty nasty if someone does not use spaces, tabs, or newlines. Here is a site that shows how to write clean code.

I found two websites that claim to be technology firms. The first one I found in a Digg article, but the other I just came across. These sites look like they were created in the 90’s and have not been updated since. WOW!

Retail Me Not is a really great coupon codes site. Nice layout, easy to navigate and search, and the most up to date I’ve seen.
Mmm… pizza…

So, I don’t know if anyone knows about the website Slashdot, but I found a new slogan on one of their pages that I thought was pretty cool.
 “The Nuts and Volts of News for Nerds”.
(it is located at the top by their logo)
They have always advertised themselves as “News for Nerds…”, but now it sounds more interesting.
