General Notes:  You may find this relatively disorganized.  It's not.  It's organized to a secret system worked out in my head.  Really.  I'm crafty like that.  Seriously, it's roughly organized along alphabetical lines, but with web pages that can get...interesting at times.  If you're interested in submitting a link, contact me (the webmaster) using the cleverly provided email address on the bottom of this page, or post a "Hey, pimp my site!" sort of message on our webboard.  I look forward to the submissions.  And let's keep it PG-13-R, please?  I personally don't care, but others do, and they can kick my ass, so I let it go.  Really.

Genre Links:
(Science Fiction Links.  Duh.)

Publishing Companies/Authors/General Literary Sources & Contacts:

Baen Books
A major genre publishing company, with an awesome Free Library.  Worth checking out.

Heidi Wyss
A submitted link by the person in question.  Self-described literature as "Existential grrl lit, 7000 years in the future. Free to read online."  Not personally my favorite part of the genre, but I'm sure many will enjoy it. 

John Ringo
One of the coolest new science fiction authors out there today and a personal favorite of the webmaster's, ergo the pimpage.  His website's chock full of interesting stuff, including a number of New York Times editorials written by Ringo himself.

Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America


Sean Alonzo
SeanAlonzo.com is the official site of occult fiction author Sean-Alonzo, exploring symbolism, alternative history, philosophy, secret societies and other areas of the esoteric tradition.  It also has the distinction of being the first website actually submitted to the webmaster by the actual person in question, and not by a Forumite.  Huzzah!

Spider Robinson
The man may deny it to anyone and everyone, but there was a time when he was a Forumite.   We've got records and proof and stuff.  He's still got some of our library books.  Despite the complete lack of love he shows us, I've included the link to his website all the same.  Not too many hard feelings, eh?  =)

Television & Movies:

Other/Special Interest:
Spacebattles
A large genre-related fansite on the web, with discussions ranging all over the spectrum.  Also a source of downloadable fan-made 3D movies, which is nifty.

Star Destroyer.net
A Star Wars Technical Site, created and run by Mike Wong.  Based at least loosely on real science, and an interesting webboard to visit.

Near-Genre Links:
(Fantasy/Horror/Science Fact/Borderline Sort of Stuff.)

The AFU & Urban Legends Archive
A reference site for Urban Legends.

The Hacker Files
A conspiracy, X-Files, They're out to get you type of site.  Given one of them actually took the time to post on the webboard, I suppose it's proper that I include their site on the links page.

Popular Science
The home page for Popular Science, the magazine.

Urban Legends Reference Pages
Another reference site for Urban Legends.

Classic Battletech
The home of Battletech on the web.  Long live House Steiner-Davion!

The Frontier
One of the best gaming sites on the web.  The easiest way to explain how the Frontier works is to take Civilization or Master of Orion, and make it text based, with other people.  Can be highly addicting.  Mention the Forum if you join Ad Astra and you'll get three extra Race Creation Points.  =)

Paradox Entertainment
Makers of games like Hearts of Iron and Europa Universalis.  Your one-stop shop for all your world conquest gaming needs.

The Roth Pond Regatta
It's that thing, with the boats made out of the cardboard and the duct tape.  Yeah, that thing.  Really.  Seriously, worth checking out the huge photo archives, if for no other reason then you'll get some idea of our state of mind here at Stony Brook.

Bandwagon, Ho!  A disturbing hobby amongst Forumites, and worth posting as a link.
