I found surprisingly few helpful, fun, or even well-designed 2012-specific websites during my research. A few forums appeared to have been started with good intentions but were taken over by survivalists comparing guns and bunker designs.
Here are some important portal-type sites to begin your studies. Consult the country travel planners on www.moon.com , as well as my 2012 Travel Blog .
