I've decided to make this into a general stuff-finding page, since I have found links to various dictionaries, search engines, and whatnot. I've also moved a couple of things from my other pages which fit properly here.
Phone books and other info searching |
Switchboard - find people or businesses all over the US. Four11 Directory services. WhoWhere, another directory. InfoSpace, a directory of almost anything. Big Yellow, the biggest online Yellow Pages directory. 555-1212.com. Just like the phone number, except it's a web site. The CCSO Phonebook server lookup. Domain lookup and address-finding stuff at wustl.edu Phone books at the University of Minnesota or Texas Tech. PublicData.com, a database of publicly-available information in Texas. If it's publicly-available, why is this a pay-site? Check out a directory of weather maps.

Dictionaries |
Don't be a luser, read the Jargon file. Some acronyms to tide you over until Microschlock comes out with a new product.

Netfinds |
I haven't been able to get on one of these telnets for months, and some of them don't even seem to exist any more, so use them at your own peril! University of Minnesota -
