General Interest
|
| WEB PAGES THAT SUCK. The name truly says it all folks. This is a worthwhile site for anybody wanting to build a quality Web page. Their whole concept is to take you to actual, really bad sites so you can learn what NOT to do. They offer consulting, links, bulletin boards and e-mail assistance just for a start, all done with a tongue-in-cheek sense of humor. |

Graphics
|
| TUMI'S CURSORS This award-winning graphics site is a unique source for just what it says: cursors. Tumi and his "little bro" have created over 20 sets of 3D cursors to be downloaded. You can also join his mailing list and be notified whenever he creates new sets. |

Books
|
| THE CLASSIC BOOKSHELF.COM Innovative and exciting!! A definite must-have site for any bibliophile (booklover)!! This highly acclaimed site has classic books from over 50 authors, from the Brontes to Aesop to Baum, Dickens and Conan Doyle! The best thing is, you choose the page size, the font size, colors and thoroughly customize it to your own tastes. Once you have made your selection, just sit back and read away a rainy day or a stressful workday. You can even save up to ten books on the bookmark page so you don't have to go in search of them. |

For the kids
|
| BIG BLUE GRAPHICS. There is not enough to be said about this site. I am in awe. This is a children's fantasy site with everything from dragons to fairies, books to games. The music is beautiful and the graphics are breathtaking. I nearly lost myself completely, almost forgetting that this was in fact a children's site!! A definite bookmark!! |

Fun Stuff
|
|
NEOPETS.COM Tama-you-know-what eat your heart out. This is absolutely the coolest site for creating virtual pets. I'm not going to spoil all the surprises for you, but I do want to peak your interest. Once you create your pet you can buy them toys, send them on quests, and go shopping with them among other things. I've only just begun, and already I am having a blast. This site is built for all ages from the toddler set on up to adults which makes it an excellent way to spend that quality time together. |

| THE OFFICIAL ROBERT BURNS WEB SITE. Ever wonder who wrote Auld Lang Syne? Ever want to know the words, or for that matter what the heck the song is about anyway? On this page of the Robert Burns Encyclopedia, you'll learn all the answers to that and much, much more. This site even covers the gradual evolution of the now famous lyrics. |

Featured Friends Site

WELCOME This site proves you're never too old to do a bit of Web weaving. One of our subscribers sent us her site and we just loved it! She has set up an entire Web site dedicated to the love she feels for her family. She has ten family pages, including eight dedicated solely to their new granddaughter. She also has pages of her poetry, paintings, recipes and book reviews. All of this, combined with gentle, beautiful graphics makes this award winning site a highly enjoyable place to visit over and over. |
