The Gotham Gazette takes a detailed look at Con Edison's underground steam delivery network in New York City. They generate and distribute over 30 billion pounds of steam per year, using over 1 trillion gallons of water. The steam is used by the city and by Con Ed customers for heating, dry cleaning, medical sterilization, and other functions throughout the city.
The Info-Mac Archive is one of the legends of the Mac computer world. A gigantic software archive and a high-quality mailing list/newsletter covering "all things Macintosh", pretty much everyone who used a Mac in the 80's or early 90's used Info-Mac at some point. Alas, with the growth of the Web, Info-Mac became less and less relevant, and is finally closing its doors after 21 years.

Philip Greenspun has updated his look at digital cameras and digital SLR's to include lots of great information about the latest cameras out there. I'm a little disappointed he didn't look at any of the Nikon non-SLR cameras (the CoolPix series), but he hit a lot of great Canons, Kodaks, and others.
