Home of the dire shark, UncleBear.com's been published since the mid-1990s in one form or another. The site's changed a lot over the years, but it remains true to its geek (or rather, post-geek) core, offering essays, commentary, and news about all the things that geeks love. 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.

Shark Bytes is the unofficial fanzine of Pinnacle Entertainment Group's Savage Worlds game system.

Each issue is themed -- the Spring 2008 edition, for example, deals with the supervillain setting Necessary Evil.
