By far the best and at the same time most ignored piece of content in
years is The Simpsons Virutal Pet at Springfield Springfield. Honestly,
I can't say enough good things about this game. It's professional,
engaging, interesting - and still in the works! Download version 1 and
see for yourself.

After five months of down-time The Muntz Monument is back up. It's
reverted to version 1 though, so it may be a little hard to recognize
for the newer webmasters. But there isn't exactly light at the end of
this tunnel; in his words, "don't expect frequent updates, cos I am
busier now."
keytospringfield.com
Key to Springfield is now claiming a release in only 3 days. People
should remain skeptical however. If you check out the archives, you'll
find mention of it in the March 2005 thread, well over a year
ago. Also, the 3 days page has been up since June 18.

Little Miss Springfield appears to have lost its domain. No word from
Alicia, and it seems very likely this could mark the end of one the best
character sites.
maggied.com
SimpsonsRanked now has all 17 seasons of episodes up and ready for
rating. However, it's section of links is beginning to look more dated,
as it includes 3 sites generally agreed to be dead. But who can keep up
with this rate of closing?
dashdingo.com
Go Simpsonic!, long thought to be dead, will be re-designing soon.
However, with this overhaul, it will become officially
non-update-oriented.
less meta-sites, more sites
I hate to complain about activity in the community, but there's a rising
trend in meta-sites. The Simpsons Network and Digital Springfield are
interesting, but where does it end? We need more original ideas, not
another month-on links page.
sub-directories
At one point it could have been considered trendy or
going-against-the-stream, but it's now obvious webmasters are just being
cheap & lazy. /ralph and /snn were hip, in your face. Every other
initialism and abbreviation that comes after a semi-successful domain
gives off the idea that this site won't be around for long, and this is
usually the case. Pretty designs and sub-domains are glaring examples of
a lack of dedication. If they don't care enough to shell out $5 for
someobscurereference.com, we shouldn't care enough to look.
