I
tend to choose carefully which sites I find of interest. So please find
below only a few links but to web sites I consider worth visiting to expand
one's knowledge horizon.

Education Web sites
 BBC
On-line Homepage
This constantly updated site is ideal to get access to a multitude of other
Web sites. The BBC provides addresses of very interesting other sites (arts,
science, TV, etc.). Certainly a must-have link.
Linux Home Page
You can have a look there to find out more about the greatest potential
threat to the Windows® empire. I have personally worked on
a Linux operating system at the university and at home during my PhD, and
also use Unix often at work now. Linux is definitely more pro than Windows®.
Besides, you can download the whole Linux software for free from the
Web (this link), so why not giving it a go?
The twin paradox solved!
For those of you who have come across this annoying problem while studying
Einstein's laws of Relativity, here is a chance to find peace and ... a
solution!
NASA
Access most up-to-date information, data and images on space exploration from
the National Space Agency website itself! A treasure trove of mind-boggling
discoveries and wonders towards the final frontier!
Entertainment
Cyan Home Page
This site is that of the creators of the world famous computer games MYST,
RIVEN, and MYST III: Exile all of which I played and loved.
Like me, these guys have created a whole universe, in which a few individuals
have the power either to create a variety of worlds (called "ages")
or to maybe just find the paths to these worlds (a large uncertainty lies on
the truth). The ages are somptuously beautiful and
atmospheric. Highly recommended games, no less pleasurable site.
J.K. Rowling’s
personal webpage
J.K.Rowling shares with you there many things from
her private life and tells you about how Harry Potter came to be. Lovely
site, with some surprising revelations. Well worth the visit.
Finances
Financial
Times site
Find there all what you want to know about share prices to what is on
offer for ISAs, the latest financial news, compare
deals of various building societies, etc. Thorough and efficient.
