• Wikipedia: List of Celtic Language Media. A handy reference to online and broadcast audiovisual media in all Celtic languages: Irish, Manx, Scots Gaelic, Welsh, Breton, Cornish.
• YouTube: Gordon Wells. This YouTube 'channel' contains some 150 videos in Gaelic and English with which the Benbecula 'renaissance man' and polymath (and also my old Gaelic teacher) Gordon Wells has been involved in the making with the Island Voices project. The videos have been grouped into 8 separate playlists corresponding to the English and Gaelic Series One and Series Two Outdoors, Generations, and Enterprise categories. Click on "playlists" to get a non-stop "feature length" playback of all the videos in the category of your choice. For transcripts you'll still need to go to the Island Voices project site.
• Ainmean-Àite na h-Alba / Placenames of Scotland. The authoritative database of Gaelic placenames. You can search for an anglicised placename, eg Tyndrum, and get the Gaelic from which it's derived (Taigh an Droma) with notes on the Gaelic meaning (house of the ridge). The site is in Gaelic and English, the project is run by Bòrd na Gàidhlig, and has a heap of local council partners. Recommended.
• Language Engineering Resources for the Indigenous Minority Languages of the British Isles and Ireland (LER-BIML). This site has linguistics resources for minority languages of the Celtic, and ex-Celtic, islands off the NW coast of Europe, the languages being:
  1. Cornish
  2.  Scottish Gaelic
  3.  Irish
  4.  Manx
  5.  Scots
  6.  Ulster Scots (Ullans)
  7.  Welsh

  Most practically, the site has downloadable corpora in Welsh and Scots Gaelic.

• Slí Colmcille (St Columba Trail). A sort of online travelogue following the trail of the famous 9th Century Celtic monk, Columba, whose name appears pretty much everywhere in the Gàidhealtachd and Gaeltacht. Site text in English, Gàidhlig and Gaelge. Not to be confused with colmcille.net even though the content is tangentially related.
• LibreOffice Gàidhlig. The Open Source office applications suite with Scots Gaelic interface.
