Although we are well into Advent I thought I'd flag up some stuff that may be either fun or useful.
There are a great selection of ideas/links that Jonny Baker has found, you'll find this here. Steve Tilley meanwhile has pointed to an advent countdown of cosmic proportions.
If you are into craft, I thought this matchbox advent calender idea was great (may have to save this one for next year though)
If you would like to read a daily reflection then I highly recommend Hopeful Imagination.
Some Christmas story media resources that I really like, The Bible Society have put together this great little piece called The Real Story, and similarly themed (but funnier) is Retooning the Nativity by Ignite. Brian and Jacob have flagged up this video of the unoffical Christmas truce that happened between the trenches in 1914.
If you are in the U.S of A you can download a free Christmas MP3 track each day from Amazon, info here! (Won't work for us on this side of the pond, I tried!)
