21 More Great Free Websites That Will Save You Time and Money

When sleep eludes me, I inevitably end up wrapped in a blanket, on the computer, rambling about the Internet with Google. Thus, my “favorite bookmarks” tab is overflowing with random, haphazardly filed, great links, discovered in the middle of the night, while half asleep, with no particular agenda.

Periodically, I attempt to weed through and organize them. I thought you might enjoy the fruits of my insomnia.

Free-

Music at Soundpedia.

Movies at Top Ten Popular Video Sites. Not all are free, but most are.

Stuff of all types: TheFreeSite. This was on my Seventeen Best Links to Really Free Stuff post, but it bears repeating.

Phone calls: Skype

A list of links for free down-loadable eBooks at About.com-free e-books.

Widgets. If you need a break from Google Gadgets, Yahoo has free Yahoo Widgets. Forever Geek compares the two in his post Yahoo Widgets vs Google Gadgets. It’s a 2006 post, but still relevant and worth reading.

And if you’re interested in-

-a financial site that has it all?
E-trade Financial was voted number one in 2007 by Money Magazine and SmartMoney.

-buying or selling your home?
Check out the “Real Estate Neutral” site Opthome, for some great advice.

-stopping junk mail?
See Get Rich Slowly’s post How to Stop Junk Mail in It’s Tracks.

-keeping your car running forever?
Car Talk can help.

-traveling on a budget?
Another “Kayak.com- like” site, with a search engine that non-preferentially searches all the airlines and hotels, is Best Fares.

-frugal spring activities?
The Frugal Wench can help keep your costs down with her post Frugal Gardening 101. Her general web site helps answer the age old question: Are you a frugalite? I definitely am.
The Simple Dollar has a great article on Ten Frugal Tips for a Great Grilling Experience.

Really great cool time saving links-

The American Library Association has published a list of the Best Free Reference Websites for 2007.

Check out the facts on anything, at Refdesk. For example, did you know the oldest gorilla in captivity just turned 55 at the Dallas Zoo?

The Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is a government site containing relavent and current health and safety information.

And last, but not least-

If you’re tired of reading about bad news, check out Happy News. This won’t save you time or money, but it will brighten your day!
