Tools for the web searcher, research on virtual library collections, web searching methodologies, and a collection of resources for keeping current with Web-Based resources.

"I've mounted a series of web searching lessons at my web site which some of you may find useful. There are 9 parts in total, covering a range of topics including looking for images, web dirs,etc. I would be *most* grateful for feedback regarding how I can improve the lessons."

..the section on evaluating how reliable the information on a website is, has a great deal of sense.

Ever attached a document to your email, only to be told it has arrived as a jumble of strange symbols at the other end?

Yearning to send a photo of the new baby to grandma but newly wired grandma only has an e-mail program?

A nifty little utility called HotSend can banish those incompatibility blues by wrapping and delivering your document in its own portable viewer. Upon its arrival by e-mail, a double click of the mouse on the .exe file -et voila! All is revealed as the original document. HotSend purports to be useful for photos, reports, contracts,invitations and proposals.

I found HotSend easy to use and set up. The one annoying feature (it adds a new button to the menu bar of most of your programs on setup) is thankfully reversible. It’s also wise to name your document with no more than 8 characters if you want it to be openable. Minor peeves in a powerful little program designed to both expand and simplify your communication options.

The womenspace mailing list is the place to share our ideas and skills in using the Internet for women's equality.

Learn how women are creating women-friendly space online, and developing resources for women. Let's share our knowledge of Internet resources which highlight a diversity of women's experiences on a broad range of issues.

Together we can build up a network of resources to draw on. As new sites become available, we can access the quality of information made available. Let's share our growing understanding about using this new medium in our work and in our lives.
