There are plenty of places online to watch horse videos, but they often require digging through a lot of horse crap to find the good stuff.

Horses in the Tubes

I did some searching for sites that are formed specifically around equestrian related media. I wanted to locate sites that do quality control on their videos so you automatically get better options.

Online video is going to be a part of our future, although for now it is still in it’s early stages. Not all of these sites are of youtube standard, but all of them offer a good selection of watch-able videos.

Awhile back I posted about all of the online horse games I could find. Since then I’ve had lots of reader suggestions and recently I received an email about a new game called Bills Ranch.

About The Game

It’s a free multi-player adventure game set in the wild wild west that can be played from any browser. I tried out the preview and found it very entertaining, horse (or cowboy) lovers of all ages will enjoy it.

Horse and riding equipment is expensive and its important to do some research before investing in new items.

Scoping Things Out

Riders Recommended has a solution to help with the research. It is a clever site that allows horse people to recommend products that have performed well for them.

Actual Feedback

It’s not a site filled with advertisers trying to promote their own products, the recommends are all from bona fide equestrians.

Anyone who knows about twitter knows that it’s a pretty addictive way to meet fellow horse people. I encourage everyone to get signed up and start making friends. (Be sure to add me when you do).

Too Big To Be Useful

Many of those already on twitter have probably seen my list of horse people and professionals on twitter. The lists are getting so long they are difficult to manage (and update) so I decided to break them down into pages dedicated to more well-defined sections.

Most of it is just common sense, however there are a few specific things you should do when you want to sell your horse online. (Partly so you don’t end up being terrorized by Fugly Horse of the Day).
