Collective is an "interactive culture magazine" produced online by the BBC. It has sections on art, music, games, books, and "more culture". Articles appear in all of these sections and most have comments by members - indeed, the articles may be written by members. Members may also start and contribute to conversations, submit art for display, etc.
What I like about the site is that, in addition to the above added value, the section on art, for instance, has a long list of articles about artists, exhibits, reviews, and whatever. Some (most? all?) of the entries have links to even more websites about the artist.
One of the artists I saw listed was Banksy. I had heard of him, of course, but had never really seen much of his art. One of the links from the collective art review entry is to Banksy's own website, and his art is well-displayed there.
[Sadly, collective closed in the spring of 2008, although the content is still available as of May 30]
