I want to add that I will not post the contents of the links here. I think this would be a ripp-off of someone else work, and I don't like that at all. BUT, of course, if anyone posts anything on this thread that I think it would be nice to add, I will ask if I can quote them.
I would like to point out, also, that all of this are work of others and all the credits go to them (please follow the links so you can congratulate THEM on THEIR work). I will try to edit things here every time I see a important updated link or a new one.
