Subject:  [VOICENWS] Net: Awesome OS/2 links resource...

From: OS/2 May 2002 <brittonmatsympatico.ca> 

I have been working on a simple project to help users get up and running
in  the OS/2 world... I have created a replacement for the default
bookmarks  provided by Netscape and Mozilla... somewhat more
OS/2centric... 

There is a simple readme outlining what I am attempting 
http://www3.sympatico.ca/brittonm/1st_readme.txt  First I have a complete
bookmark file containing the current URL's that I am  aware of 
http://www3.sympatico.ca/brittonm/all_bm_current.html  This file is really
intended for new OS/2|eCs users, or those returning to  OS/2 after a
period elsewhere, anyway for new installations. The aim is to  provide an
os2centric starting point with the bookmarks, and the file can be  used
with Netscape or Mozilla  

It can be accessed over a browser, but it isn't really pretty, eventually
I  will create a home page to deal with this. It is primarily intended to
be the  users bookmarks file, that can be modified by the user to suite
their needs,  so I am not keen to trim too much, that should be the users
choice.   

I have put together simple readme's to describe how to proceed with the
integration of the bookmark file into the browser

====>>>>> Here's the juicy bit.....

Anyway in response to this announcement I was contacted about this
site....

http://os2.mensys.nl/switchboard/index.html  this has 800+ links, awsome,
it has international links, and it is still  actively maintained, with a
mailing list for change notification.... so I have subscribed... and I
reckon it would pay most users to check it out.... it also has an online
notification of link change, so users can help keep everything 
uptodate...    this link should be at the top of anyone's list of useful
links....!!!
 
I urge users reading this to spread the word, participate in keeping links
current, and submitting new links to this excellent resource......
 
Thanks for reading this, 

regards,
