The first 6 sites listed below are sites that I feel are very good or are of personal interest. Everything listed beneath them is a series of links to "Intensely Cool Sites", complete with features keys...

1. The Kid From Brooklyn - R.I.P. Mike Caracciolo, who unfortunately passed on July 22nd, 2013. You told it like it was and you were hilarious, big man. I miss you! You MUST see his videos!

2. Winamp Forums - The Winamp Forums are the "heart" of Winamp... the Winamp "community". Winamp is offered FREE to the public. It is absolutely the best media player in existence! I was an active community forums member there as well (Nunzio390), and offered help and technical assistance with the Winamp application in the Winamp forums many many times in the past.
