Home of the dire shark, UncleBear.com's been published since the mid-1990s in one form or another.

Regular features include reviews of bad movies, the Random News Table collecting game and geek headlines from around the web, and posts about long-running game development projects like the light-weight RPG Imagination's Toybox and the generic espionage game DoubleZero.
