Introduction
This is a snapshot of the bulk of the primary bookmark file I use with Firefox
1.0. I strive to keep it up to date but regrettably, this is
about as possible as keeping up to date with all the free magazines that come
my way. With so many Web sites coming and going and changing it is inevitable
that some URLs will result in "404 missing" errors. I am resigned to this for
individuals on mom-and-pop ISPs. However, there really is no excuse when
large companies change their Web site organization and don't provide an easy
way to locate the replacement page for those that have disappeared. Some do
but many don't seem to care if you find them or not. Even the U.S. Postal
Service will forward your mail for several months. Out of courtesy, Web sites
should do this with Web site addresses as well!
The bookmarks, below, are divided into major categories and sometimes further
sub-divided but not too deeply. I apologize for the organization (or relative
lack thereof). Maybe someday I will reformat this stuff using fancy HTML
tables and add meaningful descriptions of each entry. Then again, maybe pigs
will fly. :-) This version is pretty clean but I don't guarantee that for
the subsequent ones - I 'processed' it mostly by hand (well, OK, I did use
a computer!) with some help from GNU EMACS. What is really needed is a SED or
PERL script (or something) to do that automatically. I promise get to
that first thing after the pigs start flying. :)
