Discovery Dinosaur Central is a fun site with lots of animations, slide shows and recent news about paleontology and archeology. I could spend hours here.
Of course all of the articles are short and sweet, in that Discovery magazine style. Which makes it perfect for some web-grazing.
In a few minutes I read about the latest discovery of an articulated Dimetrodon fossil in northern Texas that had its “fangs” still intact, watched a slide show of computer models made of our current line-up of potential human ancestors, saw a life-like reconstruction of what “Otzi” the “Iceman” looked like, and got side-tracked into a recently un-earthed Greek temple. You get the idea.
Have fun!
