Cute Overload - http://www.cuteoverload.com
This website has been scientifically proven to raise one's mood and brighten anyone's day. It is also very informative as to the various positions cats can get into, and teaches visitors about various animals from all over the globe, including seals, tigers, otters, and giant-eared rodents. This website also helps people to determine their pulse, for you do not smile after visiting this website, then you do not have one.
Okay, I'll change this if it's not institutional enough, but I couldn't resist plugging a fun website that also promotes the love of animals. ;D

I love this site! Totally institutional. :D
Pulled from hibiscus' post in the B-12 deficiency thread. I don't know how I missed it, but I haven't seen this site before. Exciting stuff.
Vegan Health: http://www.veganhealth.org/sh
Provides accurate information about the known health benefits and gives specific nutritional recommendations.
I went through my bookmarked pages and added some more links to my original post. I only have one accidentally vegan link. I remember a couple of others, including at least one for alcohol. Do any of you have more accidentally vegan links?
I used to love to go on http://43things.com which is a blogging site where you list interests and post progress on them. That's actually what led me to this site.
People can read your postings and comment or answer questions. It's very inspiring actually. You give 'cheers' to people who you admire. You guys should check it out. It's a good starting place for many other reference sites.
I found the vegan alcohol link. Anyone know of more veg*n magazines?
The veg*n directory is not quite done, but go to my original post to see what links I have so far.

Vegan Health is part of a larger site called Vegan Outreach that is very cool: http://www.veganoutreach.org/

HH, great thread! It should be a sticky ;)
Thanks, vd. I can't believe I forgot Pangea. ::)
jm - I added the link to the Popular Thread Directory. It's "Vegan Websites- Health, Shopping, Blogs, Etc." under "Of General Popularily and Interest."
I have a new food blog! It's
http://whatkateate.wordpress.com
Can we sticky this thread too?
Also, http://hezbollahtofu.blogspot.com/
They veganize Anthony Bourdain recipes.
Added! Nice blog, kmk.
It's hard to find, but under Vegan Food & Cooking, there's a sticky for bp's Popular Thread Directory. Back in my mod days when I could modify posts, I stuck a link in there for this thread. It's at the bottom of the list, Veg*n Websites. When we were at stemma I added links, but they'r lost now. You have reminded me to work on this.
Oh OK. That's easy enough. Thanks!
http://www.livingvegan.org/
it is mainly a vegan restaurant guide for LA but has expanded it to minneapolis/st. paul, san diego and tijuana.. they also have some other things like grocery store guide, recipes, veg news etc..

Great list ;)b
Was wondering if you might like to mention my website too?
I am an advocate for animal and environmental protection. I made my website to help educate others on a variety of concerns/issues and.. my website is a link to other great websites too!

Has nobody mentioned freerice?
freerice.com
Guess at the meaning of words, and for every word you get right, the advertisers (mostly ethical/fair trade retailers) donate the equivalent of ten grains of rice. You can play for an hour and feed someone for a day.
