In this issue: your E-LIST favorites?
Web site recommendations: IT/misc
In a few days E-LIST will be a year old. I'm curious what sites readers
have found most interesting/useful/intriguing. If you have a moment,
please look through the E-LIST archives and send me your favorite links.
I will redistribute these in the next issue. The archives are here:
http://www.eszter.com/elist/urls2002.html
E-LIST (and E-BLOG entries) should be back on a more regular schedule from
now on.
