- Did you work at IBM in the UK? Do you have
a "C-Plan" pension? IBM may be
dipping its fingers in your pension. Go visit

and register for updates.
- Highfield Church Choir
- Highfield Choir debuts on MP3.Com - proceeds
towards their 2001 tour of Sweden
- Susanna's shop
- Buy a nice black Rotring pen from her while
you are there!
- Phipps Family Garage Sale
- All sorts of stuff to browse and buy
- Photo Art Clothes
- I've made some of my photographs available
on t-shirts and things - take a look. Also
in the Shop.
- Amazon Wish-Lists
- It's a long-shot, but if for some crazy reason
you wanted to buy me a gift(!), I have a
wish-list on Amazon.Com and a wish-list on amazon.co.uk from which you are completely free to pick!

- Sun's Software & Platforms home page
- Java Home
- The heart of the Java world
- Languages that Compile to Java
- As I've been saying for five years now, what
matters about Java is that you end up with
portable binary components - the language
is cool but less significant. This site lists
all the known languages that can be compiled
to platform independent Java bytecodes, as
well as interpreters, pre-processors and
other stuff.
Open Source Related
- SlashDot
- The only place to go for open source community
news of every sort. Full of attitude of all
colours
- WebMink Wearables
- Get a shirt with a message.
Resources
- Alexa search bar
- I find a built-in search bar really useful
in my web browser. If you'd like to get Amazon
book recommendations when you use the 'related
sites' feature, try this one from Alexa -
it's Google powered too so the search is
first-rate.
- SpamGourmet
- This service offers anti-spam e-mail forwarding;
you can make up your own disposable addresses
that only work a limited number of times.
For example, if you're one of the first three
to send e-mail to website-test.3.webmink@spamgourmet.com I will receive it, all subsequent mail to
that address will get vaped.
- CafePress
- So you have a great idea for a t-shirt or
mug and would like to see it made real? CafePress
will make it and send it to you, or even
create an online shop so that other people
can buy your design.
- PayPal
- Need to send someone some money? Want to
sell things but avoid having to accept credit
cards yourselves? PayPal works, and it's
free for low-volume use.
- AmazingMail
- I use AmazingMail to send my photos to friends
and colleagues (yes, I have been known to
send thank-you cards!) They let you upload
your own photo, create your own message,
address the card & then they manufacture
and laminate it and mail it anywhere in the
world for about a dollar a card. I don't
know how long the offer will last, but they
are giving new sign-ups 5 free cards to try,
so give it a go.
- LinkShare Affiliate Network
- Just in case you have your own web site and
are looking for ways to earn an odd penny
or two with it, the LinkShare system lets
you gather your commissions together into
one place for payment to you rather than
you having to join dozens of different schemes.
Not for everyone, but it costs nothing so
it's worth trying.
Fun
- User Friendly
- My favourite cartoon, a soap opera about
a small ISP. Make sure you read some of the
archives & not just today's because you'll
probably not understand it in isolation.
- BookCrossing.Com
- Release a book into the wild and see where
it travels! This is like the bank-note "Where's
George" site but with a purpose.
