webmaths
One of the hardest subjects for me in school was mathematics. I shuddered whenever I have to go to those classes. But if today's Family First site were around, I would have most likely done a little better.
Called WebMath, it is an online resource for anyone who is looking for help with math. All ages are welcome, and all types of problems are covered and discussed. Everything from adding to subtracting, all the way to quadratic equations and polynomials. Even the dreaded story problem has it's spot. But there are also some areas that can help with everyday life, such as metric conversion, figuring a tip, and converting temperatures.
This site is one that deserves a bookmark for any student, struggling or otherwise. Really a good site that shows how useful the Internet can become in education.

Computer Gripes
Computer Gripes: "Introduction: This web site is devoted to what stinks about computer products (hardware, software, web sites); specifically to the problems I've experienced in using them. It exists because the errors, bugs, poor documentation, and occasional stupidity in the field drives me nuts.
These gripes are not product reviews, which typically describe the features of a product and what's good about it. Instead they fill in the gap, focusing exclusively on what's bad about a product. The intention here is not to rate or judge products, in fact, I continually use many griped about products."

Prior to Zoom Player, playing media files on the PC was either overly simplistic for the Power User or overly cryptic to the common user.

Remember the days when you used to make paper airplanes? Who knows, a number of you still might create these engineering marvels. Some kids could make awesome looking airplanes that would actually fly fairly well. My creations ended up looking like... a flat piece of paper. If I did actually succeed in making one, it would look like it had been beaten up - repeatedly. Producing things out of paper can be really fun..
