SITES OF THE WEEK

by Andrew Davis
1. Queer Duck (http://www.sho.com/queerduck): The hilarious Queer Duck and his friends (Bipolar Bear, Openly Gator and Oscar Wildcat) have moved from the now-defunct Icebox.com to the Showtime site. Not only can you watch past and current episodes; you can also meet the characters, send postcards and even purchase items like T-shirts.
2. Chad Allen Online (http://www.kclark.net/chad/): Fans of the handsome, openly gay actor can go to this site for everything from Chad-related news to autographed items. While the site has the requisite items like photos, a store, and a discussion board, how many actors would post their resumes online for the world to see?
3. Famous Mugshots (http://www.mugshots.org): Take an amusing and sometimes scary trip through the photos that some (in)famous people took when they got booked. While some are hardly surprising (e.g., Jeffrey Dahmer), who would've expected Larry King's, um, mug to be staring back at us at this site?
