Greetings archivists --

The World Event Village has greatly impressed me. It is broadband media that
allows you "to experience the world."

Link -- http://www.worldeventvillage.com/

World music, arts, dance, community, fairs, commons and festivals are
featured.

Mass media refugees and indies will particularly appreciate this online
venue. 'WEV' lets you travel every corner of the globe using Web and
Internet technologies.

Not sure if WEV is an "idea for new collections" but is sure is cool way to
access what is going on around the globe.

There is a small monthly subscription fee.

I am curious what you may think of this service. Let me know your thoughts.

Cheers,

John Maloney
