One more GREAT one and four good ones:

1. http://www.makeuseof.com

Note: This site is in my opinion in the same supreme class as http://lifehacker.com and http://www.mydigitallife.info/category/tips-tricks and therefore hard to praise quite enough

Quote:

It’s very different from most of the other tech blogs/websites. It’s unique and original in what it reviewes and how it does it. On makeuseof they don’t write about any new web applications that comes around but only about ones that are COOL, FREE and USEFUL.

It may be a subjective judgment but that’s how it is. They also try to keep it simple and all accessible, so that even newbies who never used such sites like Digg and Delicious or ones who think AJAX is famous washing powder brand can easily find their way around.

2. http://notalwaysright.com

Quote:

If you’ve ever had the pleasure of working in retail, service or other public-facing jobs, you’ve inevitably come across that occasional customer that either makes your blood boil, tickles your funny bone or leaves you totally confused. We all need a place to vent, so Not Always Right is a collection of quotes from these particularly memorable customers.

3. http://www.currentgk.com

Want to impress your family and/or friends at dinner parties with your vast general knowledge? This site is for those of you, who don't posses such a knowledge.

4. http://www.countdown2zero.com

Quote:

Want to count down to a big football game? Or maybe trash talk with your buddies before the long-awaited movie release. Enter Countdown2Zero, a website where you can create your own count down timers and share them with others. It takes about a couple of minutes to create one. Once finished you can embed it onto your personal page or invite others to discuss it online.

5. http://www.defineitfast.com/find

Quote:

DefineItFast.com is primarily an online dictionary but not your typical web-based dictionary. The website uses AJAX to make the search for definitions both fast and interactive.
