_Brain Baking_ never happens in isolation. This page contains a selection of curious websites and fellow bloggers that deserve a shout-out. It is a nostalgic throwback to the nineties _<svg class='icon'><use xlink:href='#link'></use></svg>links_ or _blogroll_ pages, like my recently excavated [2007 browser bookmarks](/museum/fav.html).
Visit [blogroll.org](https://blogroll.org/) for a superior curated list of fine personal & independent blogs. If you're looking for something specific, consider searching on [searchmysite.net](https://searchmysite.net/) which focuses on content created by independent blogs. Both are great ways to get to know new people and sites.
As for fan sites, too much to mention: [The Castlevania Dungeon](https://castlevaniadungeon.net/), [Animal Crossing Blogs](https://www.jvgs.net/home/) by JVGS, [Albion](http://albion-hra.wz.cz/) (1995, BlueByte) by IS4, Flamestryke's [Wizardry and Might & Magic sites](https://www.zimlab.com/wizardry/recovered/flamestryke/), [Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together](http://luct.tacticsogre.com/) and [Knights of Lodis](http://tacticsogre.com/).
