Stay away from the front page, but Rotten Library is a pretty good read (and mostly SFW). All sorts of weird topics and macabre historical facts.

I'm very sad that they seem to have stopped updating it years ago.

Yes, and so why is it still there?

Someone must be paying the bills and maintaining it. But it's the same folks behind ...

It's a static page; I imagine that the costs for it are pretty trivial. And maybe they've just forgotten about it - a few bucks a month from a hosting service that hosts a dozen other sites, where a credit card number gets updated every few years.

I guess. As I recall, the theory was that the admin got locked out of the server. But after a few years, that seems unlikely.
