http://www.howstuffworks.com

Should be pretty self-explaining, but for those who aren't on the mood to use their brain, or just don't get it, it's a sit full of descriptions about how diffrent things work.

Fore example, they tell you how to pick locks, how machine guns fire at that rate, how do to build a nuke (well, almost) and so on... it's great stuff.

Some ofcource know the site, but for those who don't...

Yes, its extreamly helpful. I love the 3D java models they have.

Yeah, that site is great.

If you're really into online resources, check out this post at a science forum I recently found. It has a listing of loads of stuff, and I found out that MIT publishes their courses online because of it.

The internet makes learning or wasting time easy, depending on what you're most interested in.

Another reason why I love the AGS forums.. Whatever you need to find, someone has a link!

Yeah... I hadn't really thought about how coffee makers make the coffee, but now I know...

Yeah, howstuffworks is great. My "high school" computing teacher told us to use it whenever we had something technical we were unsure of. Great stuff.

I found it while searching google image search for a nuclear explosion... :

"How do nuclear weapons work?" heh, these titles sound sometimes so funny to me...

Yeah, i remember discovering howstuffworks.
I felt like a little kid in a land of... land of something that joys little kids.
