I put this list of sites together for an HCI lecture, so thought I'd pass along... There is some really cool sh** out there on the Web.

Just plain cool sites:

http://csszengarden.com/
Demo of CSS possibilities

http://www.mediaboom.com/
Great use of the retro theme. Try the zooming cityscape feature.

http://www.phylotaxis.com/
Science meets culture. A very different display of science news sources and blogs.

http://swarmsketch.com/
Collective sketching. Go ahead, contribute a line.

http://www.momu.co.kr/
Cool animation.

http://spacesounds.com/
Good use of sound.

Here are some fun sites with subjects organized around the theme "SUBJECT TO SEARCH".

SUBJECT TO SEARCH includes:

all of these web based new media projects approach searching,
databasing + outputting results from searches + databases as artistic
methods, readymades + raw materials. these projects variously
approach the SUBJECT TO SEARCH from politicized, systematic,
secretive + widely accessible positions.
