Unusual/entertaining/informative websites?

[pctutor]

Every few months I do a blog post and just point out oddball websites that most of my clients have never heard of. I'm about to do another one, and would love to hear from you guys any sites that you think fit the bill. As an example, here are the ones I listed the last time I did one of these type posts:

Account Killer
https://www.accountkiller.com/en/# - quickly close various social media accounts if you want to

Down for everyone or just me?
http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/ - check to see if a website is actually down

ManualsLib
http://www.manualslib.com/ - 1.7 million manuals in PDF format, all free

Coffitivity
https://coffitivity.com - website generates background noise that sounds like a coffee shop

All About Birds
http://cams.allaboutbirds.org/ - live birdnest webcams

11 foot 8
http://11foot8.com/ - video clips of a highway overpass that is shorter than usual, and trucks run into it regularly (this one was by far the most popular one in this list)

So what oddball sites do you guys know about?

That is brilliant. The shopping sites on that page are affiliate links so the owner of that site is making some money.

Good list you got there:

Not really oddball.. but:

and don't forget pastebin.com -- weird stuff on there all the time.
EDIT:
Speaking of weird stuff... looks like Anonymous broke all user passwords for the Saudi Ministry of Information website:

The Abbey Road Webcam http://www.abbeyroad.com/crossing

It's fun to watch tourists risk being run over while reenacting the Beatles Abbey Road album cover.

Best during daytime.

Not really an oddball/unuusual website, but, I just can't help from laughing no matter how many times I have seen this video over the course of several months.

Looks like FailBlog is no more, but a search for them turned up something that has taken up the slack : http://failblog.cheezburger.com/failbook
