This is a website about 3rd party apps and mods for the Xbox and Xbox 360. Easily the best on the web.

Neko_Asakami's Links
- D+Pad
This is a webcomic about guys in a video games store. It updates VERY infrequently, but it's worth a trip through the archives once in a while.
- Digitally Imported
DI.fm is techno and trance from around the world broadcast over the internet. The free streams only go up to 96kbps (fine for most people), but the 128/160kbps streams are worth it if you have a good connection and good speakers.
- El Goonish Shive
This is an odd webcomic dealing with Mad Scientists, Transformations, and Fur Fetishes. This is worksafe, but you still may find the content disturbing. It's almost considered required reading for World Domination Wednesday.
- Exploitation Now!
This is, without fail, the dirtiest webcomic I have ever read. I'm sure there are worse, but none are this funny. It's been over for the better part of three years now, but is still worth a read. Great story (takes a while to find, but it's there)
- In The Garden: The Language of Flowers
This is the best website I have found on the meanings of flowers. It uses Victorian era books for its sources, so it's not the made up modern meanings you find on florists' websites. Excellent if you're looking for something a bit more romantic than roses
- iTunes from Apple
[corporate whoring] This is iTunes, which in my opinion is the best music service out there. Please support the artists, but only buy the songs you like! [/corporate whoring]
- Least I Could Do
This is not a worksafe comic, however it is freakin' hilarious. It defies description, but know this: If you like my humor, you'll love this comic.
- LRPD Vandal Squad
This is a nifty grafitti website where you can grab perhaps the niftiest art program ever. Check out the Grafitti Studio program under the Paint Offline link.
- Mad About U.
Mad Scientist University. Just recently came back from a six-month hiatus. Required reading for the World Domination Wednesday article.
- Magic Set Editor 2
This is the software we use when we (Tau and I) design our cards. Right now it's in beta, but it's a very strong beta. It also supports Vangaurd cards, Vs. System, and Yu-Gi-Oh!
- Queen of Wands
This comic is one of my recommended reading list. It is both humorous and dramatic at points, even the the art lacks sometimes. It's currently in reruns, but well worth the read!
- The Players' Resource Consortium
This is the single best hakpak for Neverwinter Nights 1 ever. Period. And it's coming to NWN 2.
- Toy Box Art
NOT WORK SAFE! This is the original website for the iMac Chick. I have the one photoshop tutorial and .psd he ever released, it will be available on my personal site as soon as it's translated.
- Wilde Home for Wayward Catgirls
Bridget Wilde is my favorite catgirl artist by far. This is definately all cheesecake and the erotic section is clearly marked. It's worksafe, at least as worksafe as a catgirl fetish gets.

Web Comics
- 8-bit Theatre
The best sprite comic on the web by far. It's based on Final Fantasy 1, but it's funny even if you've never played a video game.
- Apple Geeks
Home to Apple Geeks and Apple Geeks Lite. Good stuff, even though some may not make sense if you don't know a little about Islam. And if you're offended by the word "Islam" you can get the Hell out of here right now. We don't need your kind here.
- Bad Boys of Computer Science
Extremely funny, nust not worksafe. Unless your workplace is okay with swearing and such. Then it's fine.
- Commissioned
This is a webcomic about RPGs done by a professional RPG artist. Hilarious. LIVE FOR THE 20!
- Count Your Sheep
This is a cute webcomic with no real plot, just a cute little girl and her imaginary pet sheep.
- Errant Story
Excellent fantasy comic by Michael Poe. Mostly work safe, but has some questionable bits.
- Free Fall
This is a sci-fi comic about a genetically engineered wolf woman stolen (through clerical error!) by a dishonest alien spaceship captain. It moves slow but has some of the best jokes ever.
- General Protection Fault
GPF Comics is a geek webcomic, probably the best there is. It's on hiatus right now (until Nov 6.), use this time to catch up!
- Help Desk / Kernel Panic (ubersoft.net)
Home to the web comics Help Desk and Kernel Panic. The former is more regularly updated. Parody of MS and the computer industry in general.
- Kevin and Kell
The adventures of a rabbit (Kevin) married to a wolf (Kell). It's a great comic with over 10 years of archives.
- Little Gamers
Gaming webcomic by a pair of Swedes. It's funny, but occasionally not worksafe.
- Mac Hall Comics
This is a webcomic giant. However it is currently on hiatus, so updates will be non-existant for a while. You still owe it to yourself to go through the archives though. Seriously, make with the clickly.
- Mega Tokyo
Largo and Piro get trapped in Japan. Extreme Comedy follows. One of our favorites.
- Penny Arcade
If you don't know who Penny Arcade is, what are you doing on the internet? Go back to the rock you crawled out from under and watch I Love Lucy reruns.
- Real Life Comics
This is Real Life Comics by Greg Dean. This is Neko's homepage with good reason!
- RPG World Comic
- Schlock Mercenary
Futuristic space Mercenaries.... Blowing stuff up... What more do you need?
- SinFest
a daily webcomic with devilish deals
- Sluggy Freelance
The adventures of Torg, Riff, Zoe, Bun-Bun, Kiki, etc... Great comic.
- The Call of Whatever
This is an older comic that makes fun of the Lovecraft Mythos. Hilarious stuff, unfortunately it doesn't update anymore.
- Turn Signals on a Land Raider
It's not well, drawn but strangly funny. Most likely though, it'll only make sense if you're into Warhammer 40,000.
- User Friendly
What? You haven't heard of UF? And you call yourself a geek. Go read it.
- VG Cats
This is a cute strip about videogame playing cats. Ah, who are we kidding? This is Penny Arcade with cats and better art. Very funny, but often not worksafe.
