Title: Loads of Research Links Post by: The Doc on June 12, 2009, 10:11:51 PM This list was compiled a few years ago by Chris Marshall (ceejay), and there are lots of versions of it to be found around the web. Unfortunately, it was never updated and there were therefore loads of broken links in it. I have updated it and added a few of my own (marked New) and deleted broken links. Please let me know if any of these are not working.
