Ten sites without whom internet is drained

For me, at least.
1. n4g (news for gamers)-


A site dedicated to gaming news. The best and probably fastest source of all gaming related news.

2. Wikipedia
Knowledge for all, from all. This free encyclopedia is the biggest enclyclopedia ever existed, and is growing at a tremendous space. It is very very rare to not find an article on anything.

3. IMDB (Internet Movie Data Base)
http://www.imdb.com/
Biggest and most comprehensive databse of movie available anywhere. Be those in English or in any other language. In my experience, it was no more than 10 times that I didnt find a movie there. Also allows users to vote, comment and discuss on movies. You can check out my votes here. As of today, there are 397 titles in my list (273 hollywood movies, 60 Hindi ones, 38 TV Series or episodes and 26 video games).

4. GPO mail
http://gpo.iitb.ac.in/Mail only for IIT Bombay students, specifically made by IIT Bombay. Each IIT has its own version. My mail here is kamal_k@iitb.ac.in

5. Gmail (Google Mail)
http://mail.google.com/
Its still in beta! That is a fact, although strange. After Yahoo! mail, this was another which suddenly revolutionised e-mail landscape. With sleek interface, in-built chat system, innovative mail management system and plenty of space, this is the best mail available out there.

6. Tweakguides
http://www.tweakguides.com/
A site dedicated to twaking PCs to run best. especifically for games. Has the most intelligent and meaningful gaming discussion forum.

7. IIT Bombay freedom
http://iitbfreedom.com/md Made by IIT Bombay students, for IIT Bombay students. Must have access password to get to site and must have a gpo mail account to get registered. Made for announcements, discussions and fun. Even faculty of IIT Bombay isnt allowed to register, only students.

8. My blog
http://kittoo4202004.blogspot.com/
No need to say even a single word.

9. Orkut http://www.orkut.com/
A social networking site by google. Extremely popular in India, Brazil and Pakistan. Very user-friendly, just like all other google products.

10. Google search
http://www.google.co.in/
Guess importance of this for me from this fact- I have used google search 11090 times in last 2 years (according to my web history). That even counts only when I was logged in. So its highly possible that the actual number is more than 15000. Its no joke, is it?
