Pete's Favorite Ten !

As the title of the review indicates, these are only my own favorite ten! Need not necessarily be your’s. I know everybody has a set of their own favorite websites to ponder. It will be nice to know others likes and dislikes as well. So, here we go!


GeoCities https://geocities.com/


GeoCities provides the space needed to house your own home page and even shows you how to create one! You can use their on-site authoring tools if you are familiar with HTML. Your site is reserved when you send them an email request. You have time to create your home page and display it for all to see. You can choose any theme formed around common interests such as literature, arts, sports , education or technology.


Priya’s Web Corner https://priya.webhostme.com


If you are smart enough, you would have guessed correctly. Yes, it is my own website, which includes if not all, at least some of my works. You can see my articles, poems, some recipes etc. You have to excuse me for one thing. Some of the links are not working. I have no idea how it happened, but still there are some interesting stuff for you to go through. Hope you enjoy your visit, to my corner of the web.


Fat Cat Cafe Free Stuff and Contests Page https://fatcatcafe.com/freecont.htm


I like to spend my time in this website, (whenever I find time) as this offers all kinds of free stuff and many links to more sites with free offers. You will find how to get free mouse pads, CDs, snacks, beverages, stickers, clothing etc. You can also play free online games to win big bucks., or enter other contests.


The Telegram Online https://thetelegram.com


This is the website for our local newspaper, ’The Telegram’. You can read all the news about Newfoundland especially, (place where I live)and other parts of Canada as well. One of my favorites, no doubt about that!


An Indian Website https://mouthshut.com


I am sure, there are many like me, who just love this site and would like to browse through whenever you get time. I do anyway. Though I don’t find time to write, due to my heavy academic workload , I take time at least a few minutes to read and write once in a blue moon. I was once in the ’Hall of Fame’ when I had time to write reviews. It is nice to see many people writing now a days. But, still I cannot understand the criteria for a ’Star Writer’ as I see some people writing just a few lines who fall in that category.


Infoseek https://infoseek.com


Infoseek is one of my favorite search engines, apart from Google. You simply type in a question or phrase, the way you normally speak You would get the results quickly. Infoseek is also case sensitive. That means, you should use capital letters for proper names. Just try this question and see. ’Where is Newfoundland?’.


A Cookery Website https://ammas.com


This is an excellent website, where you can find articles of lifestyle, some in the question and answer form and also lots of mouth-watering recipes. You will also find new advice being added every few minutes. You can get some health-related advice as well. I go there mainly for authentic recipes, which you will find plenty.


A Tamil Portal https://vikatan.com


I visit to this website quite often, which gives me all news about India, and mostly about my place Madras, now referred to as Chennai. Vikatan is actually a tamil weekly magazine, which I am able to read through in this website. I keep myself updated with everything going on politically or any news on movies etc.


An Environmental Portal https://care2.com


Being a lover of nature, this environmental portal has really impressed me a lot and I visit this place quite frequently. You can click to help save the planet, race for the rain forest, panda etc. There are some interesting articles on healthy living, where you also get good recipes as well.


A Puzzle Website https:// https://picture.com/main.asp


This is an interesting website. You can also enter a photo contest, apart from solving the puzzles. For the PhotoPuzzle , if you are lucky, you can get $100 awarded ! For easy Puzzle , the prize money is $50. You have to arrange the puzzle pieces to form a picture. Even if you don’t win, it is very interesting to fix the puzzle. Still there is no harm in trying.


Okay, that’s it folks! I have mentioned my favorite ten websites and I don’t expect you all to like them. We do have different tastes and I respect other’s taste of different choices. Just let me know if you found anything interesting in any of the above mentioned sites. You can email me!
