Free access to SAGE journals online for the entire month of October. As it says on the tin - free access to SAGE journals online. You will have to register of course and give them an email address and a few other pieces of data - 3rd letter of middle name, inside-leg measurement, that kind of thing, but it'll be worth it. Quoting from the link:
SAGE Journals Online contains more than 260,000 articles from more than 500 SAGE journals* with content available from 1999-current.
Quick Search and Advanced Search interfaces are available. You can also browse by journal title.
* Some of the many disciplines include:
+ Communication & Media Studies
+ Engineering & Computing
+ Geography
+ Information Science
+ Management & Organization Studies
+ Pharmacology & Toxicology
+ Politics & International Relations
+ Research Methods & Evaluation
+ Sociology
2) Jinni - Film and Television recommendation database Self explanatory again. Search on plots, moods, people, keywords etc. You can even limit your search to free online content. More on Jinni here. It didn't find anything when I searched for "mutant space goats and zombies". Though it did find me 200 titles it thinks is similar to The Wire so I might have a look at some of those when I get a chance.
3) Online glossary of economic terms from the Economist Unsure of the meaning of Pareto Efficiency or Velocity of Circulation? Wonder no more by consulting this handy glossary of economics and economics related terms adapted from the book Essential Economics by Matthew Bishop from Profile Books.
4) Free e-books directory An ever growing list of freely available ebooks. Further comment superfluous.
