Stumbled across these sites and thought some might find them of use.

2. I should add ...
I literally Stumbled Upon these sites.

The embedded link is to a toolbar/extension that works with Firefox and allows one to semi-randomly browse the web based on a profile of interests. I don't typically like these sorts of things -- I'm sure there's a marketing scheme at work somewhere in here -- but I was bored one night and decided just to play with it. I've found some really cool things I never would have known to try to find.

I stumbled across DU during one of my travels, which was cool.

4. Some open source for the Mac
Not all on HyperJeff's site is open source but it is easy to figure out what is free and what isn't

http://osx.hyperjeff.net/


then there is FINK:

http://fink.sourceforge.net/index.php This is for the UNIX side of OSx.
