In the ancient days of
the Web, a long list of "hot links" on one page could be a treasure trove,
guiding the reader to places unimagined. Now we have search engines
that much of the time take us quickly to where we want to go.
With search engines so efficient, this
list includes only a few sites that that have caught my (Steve Muhlberger's)
attention. There are plenty of other real prizes out there, forgotten
or never known. Let me know if you find some! (stevem {at} nipissingu.ca)
