Sites of Interest
Long years ago, I put together a list of (what I think are) useful pointers
to miscellaneous places on the WWW. As time passed, I kept taking off the
links that stopped working. Then I stopped.
This page provides a snapshot of what I thought were interesting things
to do on the web in 1995. That seems like such a long time ago. It is
a testament to the fleeting nature of the web that almost all the links
on this page are broken.
Generally useful technical sites
