The internet has opened the way for incredible diversity and knowledge
With all the amazing places to visit on the Internet, it's sometimes hard to determine what's useful and what will end up wasting your time. Here are two Web sites that can actually help you improve your life.

1. http://www.bestplaces.net/COL/ - Sperling's BestPlaces site is great for finding out information on any city in the United States, but the cost of living page is something that can help you make life-changing decisions. Of course you are interested in the crime rate, schools and neighborhoods in any place you are relocating to. But determining the cost of living in your current home compared to your future one is invaluable when determining what you can afford and what sort of salary to ask for from your new employer. Sperling's will also break down the costs for you, helping you figure out exactly how to budget.

2. http://www.windowshop.com - Amazon's Windowshop Beta is a surprisingly intuitive way to discover what sort of music, movies, video games and books are current. Amazon is already a go-to source for everything you want to buy on the Web, now there's a fun way to find out browse hundreds of entertainment options in a fun, visual manner so you can literally see what you're missing. Most of the picks have multimedia options so you can take a peek before you buy. It really is the perfect way to browse, and is a slick way to give the feeling of a virtual window shopping experience.
