Dark Side of the Net New Goth Links in Mid July 2008 Borders' "Breaking Dawn" Release Party - Borders and Waldenbooks stores in many locations are having midnight parties to celebrate the release of Stephenie Meyer's "Breaking Dawn." Not all locations are having parties. The parties are on Saturday, August 2 at 12:01 AM. Commit Your Friend to Arkham Asylum - A promotion from Nokia and The Dark Knight. You upload your friend's pic (or your own) and they embed it into a video of Arkham inmates. Freaky and cool! Here's mine. Darkstrider - This page is run by an amateur stop-motion animator. He's a particular fan of Eastern European style animators, and showcases interesting clips of their work on his site. Check out his clips of Starewitch, Briar Rose, The Gingerbread Cottage, and his own gallery of his work. Very cool. He also has an interesting Blogspot blog called "Darkmatters." Drearyland - Gothic MySpace layouts (free!), dreary pictures you can use on your MySpace, and various useful generators and HTML tips for spiffing up your MySpace page. The Duchovny Files - David Duchovny is blogging about his experiences filming The X-Files: I Want to Believe. Gothic Blend - A site with goth forums, a gallery, blog entries, and weird news. The Hedgewitch - A seasonal webzine with a focus on gothic and alternative life. Currently there are columns on spirit journaling and green cleaning, plus articles on pampering yourself with a home spa and seeing New Orleans on a budget. I'm very impressed so far, I can't wait to see what they do next! ISN Radio - Industrial music podcasts. MyGoth.com - Goth message forums. Poetry, politics, a bazaar, an area you can whore/spam with your promotions, fashion, music, health, romance, personals, and web game forums round everything out. "Quarantine" Red-Band Trailer - A trailer that should only be viewed by people age 17 and up. Second Shifters - A very nicely designed goth/industrial online radio station. Besides the streaming music, there are forums and a chatroom. They also have podcasts from time to time. I don't see a playlist or back playlists here though unfortunately. Serious X-Files Trivia - X-files quiz and trivia game. So far there are over 15,000 registered players. Sinister Space - A social networking site for people interested in Halloween, horror, and the paranormal. There are blogs, videos, groups, classifieds, quizzes, events, polls, and a gallery. X-Files Ultimate - A nice X-files fan resource, with news, episodes, fan fiction, interviews, pictures, and a game. They also have very well populated, active message forums. The X-Files: I Want to Believe, at Yahoo! - Yahoo! Movies' coverage of the X-files summer event movie. X-Files Rewatch - A Livejournal community where people are rewatching all the seasons of the X-files, then commenting about the episodes. They're currently on Season 6 episode 18.
