Sting Do any of you guys visit other LotR/Tolkien related sites?

I was just wondering if any of you visit other LotR/Tolkien related sites regularly...

The other ones that I visit often are

1.theonering.net
2. The official LotR site
3.The Quintessential LotR website

"Master!" cried Sam and fell upon his knees. In all that ruin of the world for the moment he felt only joy, great joy. The burden was gone. His master had been saved; he was himself again, he was free. - RotK

I usually go here:

1. Tolkien World
2. There and back again (this is my favourite...)
3. Tolkien online

Many of these sites also have links to others realated to Tolkien and ME.

I go to several, each one has it's own personality. I find Barrow Downs to be a very "fun" site! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I also do Entmoot and Tolkien and the Inklings. [img]smilies/cool.gif[/img]

Actaully, I don't go to very many, just
Cabed-en-aras.com has a small message board
LordoftheRings.net For some movie news, and because I like to see which actor's greeting I get [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]
TolkienGathering.com to see their updates(and I'm signed in as interested!)
That's about it,

I sometimes visit The Encyclopedia of Arda, it's a great quick-reference site. I used to fequent theonering.net for FOTR movie news, but am restraining myself before the release of TTT - I can't resist all those spoilers. The Downs is the only Tolkien forum I belong to.

I go to many other Lord of the Rings sites, most of them have already been mentioned. The only site I visit regularly though, is this one.

yeah, I live on the net, so I go quite a few places and post in a lot of places as well.

official website
to get some movie news or to just sit there and play with the welcomings for hours and hours of swooning fun!

billy boyd official website
I post here, and have met a lot of crazies!

Learning Elvish Among Friends
I post here too, and I've learned a bit of elvish...I'm one of the only hobbits that post there though..

Bit of Earth
great Sam site, the message boards are a bit dead though...and it has a bunch of slash fans...which i steer clear of, because I don't believe Sam or Frodo are gay..


Ringbearer
I post here too, and swoon over the pics, but it is down right now...

The One Ring
movie news and pics

Some french site
there's a lot of great stuff on here, even though I can't understand half of it

I go a lot of other places too..but I think I've posted too much already...
...man I look pathetic...

I've been a regular over at Minas Tirith for over a year. I'd heard this place mentioned a few times, so I decided to check it out. This is my first post here.

There are a lot of good sites being listed here.

I go to every site I can, whenever I feel like it. Usually picking sites through the Barrow-Downs link pages.
