Everybody Loves Science!
LTK:
I've realised that my everyday (read: compulsive) internet consumption didn't actually involve a whole lot of science, which is unfortunate considering I'm in the process of a career in it. So I've been looking for more sources to interesting topics in psychology, physics, chemistry, math and the like. So why don't we share?
Vi Hart's youtube channel. A self-proclaimed mathemusician. Put simply, she does narrated doodling about math and music.
Veritasium youtube channel. Natural science videos by a bearded talky head. Just discovered this today. Educational!
PBS Idea Channel on youtube. Asking questions about pop culture, technology and art, and trying to answer them.
http://www.newscientist.com/. Science news for scientists.
http://www.sciencedaily.com/. Science news for everyone. It has too much content for me to consume efficiently, but still worth a mention.
http://www.thecollapsedwavefunction.com/. A blog intended to be informative and humorous.
http://brainsidea.wordpress.com/. Cognitive science blog, especially into language and music.
What are yours?

K1dmor:
CrashCourse. John Green teaches you US History and Hank Green teaches you Chemistry.
Vsauce. Related with Veritasium; physics, chemistry, astronomy....you name it, they have it.
I'll name these because they're part of Vsauce:
Vsauce2. More focused on people achievements, mind-blowing discoveries, etc.
Vsauce3. Focused on "fictional world", internet, games, etc.
Redball:
Radiolab This is the site and the name of the weekly NPR program. It's so entertaining I didn't think of it immediately as science education.
LTK:
Vsauce didn't look all that interesting, but Minutephysics does. Just look at this!
Ars Technica also has a science section at http://arstechnica.com/science/. I found this pretty cool: A carnivorous plant has deleted most of its junk DNA.
