I am currently putting together a list of uk-specific 'useful' links. - IE useful to the average joe surfer.

So far I have these.

Anyone care to add?

BT directory enquiries [bt.com]
Altavista Translation [uk.altavista.com]
Weather [bbc.co.uk]
Streetmap [streetmap.co.uk]
AA Travel news [theaa.com]
Rail info [rail.co.uk]

I have scoot, odp, search engines etc already - have I missed many?

The AA has improved a lot since I last looked but the RAC [rac.co.uk] updates more frequently. A mixture of the 2 before a journey should be on the ball.

And how about the news. The BBC [news.bbc.co.uk] is far better than any of the portals.

BTW - I'm not convinced about knowhere.co.uk

Hi Mel, me neither - I think it depends on what info you're actually looking for. I believe the principal is good.
