If you want to know about football, this is the site to visit. Maintained by the game's governing body, this site is a treasure house of knowledge and trivia about the world's most popular sport. The site is well laid out, colorful, and easy to navigate. The links all work well, and the pages load fairly quickly (Beware, I use a so-called Broadband connection).
The site contains information about the history of the game, history of FIFA, history of world cups and history of--whatever else you can dream up, connected to soccer. Learn about the testing and company selection procedures in the manufacture of FIFA's official footballs, find out the player's reaction to playing a FIFA finals on artificial turf, wise up about the womens game and get yourself upto-date on the various awards (such as the Fairplay award) instituted by FIFA.
I could go on and on about the various links that are present in this site, but why not find out for yourself, and have some fun? I personally did not like the yellowish orange background that FIFA has used for their pages, feeling that it made the pages a bit garish, but I am sure that a very large number will probably find this very attractive.
