Taking a break from entering journals and links into my homemade database (and deferring discovery that the sudden discontinuity in my autoincrementing primary key that I've managed to create does persist after I've shutdown and restarted and therefore needs ... I don't know ... ). But I ran across these two in my notes, Geoffrey Landis' Classification of Spacedrives, a comprehensive list of every possible tried, untried, fictional and hypothetical way of getting from point A to point B, and Patricia Wrede's Fantasy Worldbuilding Questions. The latter may be intended for fantasy, but there's a lot that's relevant to the writing of SF.
