  Friends and relatives' homepages

Rather fewer here than I'd like, unfortunately. The conclusion to be drawn is not that I don't have many family or friends, but that my family and friends are mostly not willing or able to take the time to maintain homepages.

  Politics/News

As you know if you've read my homepage or talked to me much, I'm a libertarian. Here are some good libertarianism-related sites, as well as commentary and news sites with a libertarian/conservative slant.

Individuals' sites

  • L. Neil Smith, a forceful and perceptive, if at times overheated, essayist
  • David Friedman, a brilliant analyst of law, economics, and liberty, and the most down-to-earth anarchist I know of
  • Lizard, a curmudgeon par excellence
  • Eric S. Raymond, spokesman for open source, gun aficionado, great analyst of society and politics, and all-around genius
  • David Brin, not exactly a libertarian, but a terrific science fiction writer and fascinating essayist

Blogs I like

Other Web publications

  • Liberty Unbound, the website of Liberty magazine, my favorite political magazine by far
  • The Libertarian Enterprise, the no-compromise weekly Web commentary publication founded by L. Neil Smith
  • Laissez Faire City Times, another good commentary site
  • antiwar.com, foreign affairs news and editorials that challenge the interventionist foreign policy establishment
  • LewRockwell.com, a "paleolibertarian" and antiwar commentary site that generally has high-quality editorial pieces

Other

  Computer and math-related links
  • My own math page
  • Eidola is a promising project run by Paul Cantrell, in which I've taken on a reviewer/critiquer role; the goal is to create a representation-independent object-oriented visual programming language.
  • Linux is my favorite operating system
  • LyX is perhaps my favorite piece of Linux software; it's a WYSIWYG front end for the LaTeX typesetting system.
  • Window Managers for X are fun to play with, and the linked page lists them all.
  • Slashdot is the epitome of geek news sites.
  • Outpost.com is a good place to order hardware from.
  Other stuff
  • The Artemis Project, a group dedicated to putting a privately funded base on the moon.
  • Nicholas Lander's Recorder Home Page, a mother lode of useful and interesting information about this sublime instrument.
  • A big archive of Star Trek stuff at a site in Canada.
