This list of Web sites, part of the presentation at the June 1999 Monthly Meeting, should further your enjoyment of the World Wide Web and Web browsing in general. Other links of interest can be found on our Net Highlights page.

These are by no means comprehensive, so if you find some sites that you think might belong in this list, by all means send me an email at dono@northshorecomputer.org. Also, if you find a link that's "broken", please drop our webmaster a note.
