New Links and Discussion of Links....

I have added all-new links attached to the blog, now under the labels section.

80snostalgia.com - Great site that has used some real effort in their website. Also has it;s own video player, to watch 80's adverts and articles on various TV programmes. It's a fusion of many, from 80's karaoke to buying retro 80's T-shirts! Play old school console games (just a few) from the good old Spectrum/C64 and Sega Master System days. Has a forum, but isn't very active. The best part is, the webmasters host interviews with icons of the 80's such as "Bullseye's" Jim Bowen! Yes!

Popular Nostalgia - Actually, kind of like what I've been doing with this blog! But a more, shall we say, independent blog, featuring such British shows like "The Really Wild Show", "Noel's House Party" and "The Clangers". So it's really the most appropiate link to add here. However, from face value there seems to be quite alot of video material, however, when you yield through the decade list, there isn't really that much, and also, some posts were added so long ago, that the videos have been removed from Youtube. That is a problem that has to be addressed for this blog, which must be kept fresh. However, some good ideas I can take from this blog, inclusion posts from other users. Nice.

Nostalgia Critic - This website is from across the pond (USA), and features humourous nostalgic film/cartoon rants videos from a section of the "thatguywiththeglasses.com" website, by Doug Walker. He reviews some very well-known films and TV Programmes, that have featured on British TV, mainly cartoons, like Ninja Turtles and He-man: Masters of the Universe. The link is really there, because there is no British counterpart from the viral community, who pokes fun at nostlagia over here.
