Here are some links to some interesting sites that I have found while perusing through the web. Maintenance on this thing is relatively low - I've got other stuff to do!

For Finding Stuff:

Legacy bit from when the only thing you could get off Mosaic was W3C's listing. Quite frankly, search portals are everywhere, but for old time's sake,

Lists
Yahoo(briefly Netscape's default index),

Search Engines
Google, current favorite engine with nice caching function for reviving dead links (links to the living dead),
Alta Vista, when you are looking for sheer volume of results
Metacrawler - One of those "we look at 6 engines so you won't have to" (statistically speaking, a better bet than anything - see Info.Retrieval, Baeza Yates & Ribeiro-Neto, ACM 1999)

Geography
Yahoo's Map find feature based on Mapquest's software, but I find Yahoo's interface less cluttered and easier to use with a quick link to local services

Stuff about people...

Dr. Marian Williams - My Doctoral Advisor
UMass Lowell CS students - Student pages listed on our server
Margery Harrison - Maine femme
Marjan Trutschl - This link saves on typos ;-)
Caras de Chile-L - El gang internacional de "Lista Chile"

Stuff about places...
