Where have you been all my life? I stumbled across the Smithsonian Institute's website and they have a vast Palaeontology section!
http://www.smithsonianmag.com/topics/Subject-Paleontology.html
and
http://blogs.smithsonianmag.com/dinosaur/

There's gonna be a huge backlog of news coming this forum's way soon

Ever wonder what those little words / phases are at the bottom of threads?
Most people / forums don't use 'em much but here at Palaeontology we're mad for 'em!
Basically, when you click a word / phrase it takes you to a list of threads that have been tagged with that very same word / phrase. For example, did you know that we currently have four pages worth of threads tagged with the word 'Cretaceous'?

It's a great way to do some 'further reading' on the forum. Clicking a dinosaur's name for example, will bring you to more threads containing said dinosaur.
Anybody can ad tags to a thread. Go on, try it out on this one!

A bit down from where you click 'post reply' you can see the list of tags. To the right of the tags there is an option to 'edit tags'. Click it to ad your own tags.
