For "open directories" like this, it's good form to use the Coral Cache in order to not overwhelm the original source: http://thenine.ca.nyud.net/essential/

I apologize. Justification for posting:

1. As a time portal showing the evolutionary development of electronic music over the past 17 years, it also a reflection of the evolution of personal computing. From atari and circuit bending roland synths to the macbook.

2. Music is an important part of my coding or designing process.

An occasional single post that contains a multitude of links is one thing.

Encouraging people to make each of those links (and others like them) a separate post is another.

I might be misunderstanding you, but surely there must be a line between encouraging people and telling them to go to other sites.
