New links! New links!

I added some new links to the links page. Here's a brief rundown:

1. WAKY 103.5 FM: Simply my favorite Louisville radio station. Classic rock with a classic radio station feel. They DJs make me feel like they are talking to me, and not purveyors of corporate crap. Plus, they play songs a few tracks deep into an album, meaning you get to hear things you don't on other stations. They stream online, too.

2. The Grand Comic Database: Worth checking out, although it doesn't look like a finished project. It reminds me of Baseball-Reference.com, in that the site is compiling a list of all the comics ever published. Here's how they put it: The Grand Comic-Book Database Project (GCD) is a volunteer project with the goal of documenting and indexing all comics for the free use of scholars, historians, researchers, and fans. I don't have a membership yet, but I may well sign on.

3. Smithsonian Folkways: Looking for some great recordings to peruse and download? There's music, spoken word, sound effects, animal sounds and all kinds of other stuff from all over the world. I'd say, however, their primary focus is folk music, and there's a lot of Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie and Leadbelly-type music for your pleasure. Here's how they say it: Smithsonian Folkways Recordings is the nonprofit record label of the Smithsonian Institution, the national museum of the United States. We are dedicated to supporting cultural diversity and increased understanding among peoples through the documentation, preservation, and dissemination of sound.
