Ever get into a violent argument over whether a certain celebrity is dead or alive? I know I have. Here's the solution to this horrible problem. It's the Web site Dead or Alive?
This Web site currently lists 7,821 famous (and semi-famous) people from various walks of life --entertainment, politics, sports, music, law, ... and others. But that's not all! In addition to the search engine where you can look up the person you are wondering still breathes, there are various lists, such as a list of celebrities that have died in the last 6 months in reverse chronological order. Currently, Lena Horne is on the top of the list.
Wait! There's even more cool stuff here... Here's a partial list (with links that are iffy) of more stuff on this site.

I start every day with NY Times site: ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY, but it is rather dry.
Thanks for the new resources... I am already getting blog post ideas.
Cool site! I'm always shocked when I see a celebrity I thought had passed away, appearing in a commercial. Such as Abe Vigoda in that Snickers one with Betty White.
