A Few Bookmarks

After a couple of years of surfing the internet most people have tons of bookmarks and I'm certainly no exception. Some I revisit regularly, others less often, some never. And some disappear before one gets a chance for a second visit. Web sites come and go. There is no guarantee that any particular link will still be good tomorrow. Anyway, here are a few sites that could be of interest to others.

News sites I visit more or less regularly:

  • The Globe and Mail
  • CNN Interactive
  • Torstar Electronic Publishing Ltd.
  • Agricultural Publishing Farm and Country
  • Mercury Center
  • The Toronto Sun
  • Computer related sites:

  • c|net online front door
  • The Computer Paper
  • Microsoft Windows 95 Home Page
  • Symantec Corporation Home Page
  • Iomega corp.
  • LivePix Main Menu
  • Satellite stuff for those with a dish. These links deal with mostly C-band services but there is also some KU and DBS information.

  • Robert Smathers Satellite WWW Page
  • Quality Satellite Equipment by Mail Since 1983 - Skyvision, Inc.
  • Sci-Fi Channel: The Dominion

  • Being from Finnish descent I feel I should include links of interest to fellow Finns [or any surfer who's interested] of immigrant parents who may have stumbled upon this page. For a small country Finland has a great many sites on the internet. Most sites have pages in a number of languages including English. These pages from my bookmarks have links that cover just about everything:

  • Information resource map of Finland
  • Finland Related Links
  • Finland Travel Guide
  • POHTI - menu page
  • Virtual Finland - Information about Finland - Facts about Finland
  • Finnfacts
  • The Finnish Sauna
  • That should be enough links for now. Of course we can't forget the link to muskoka.com my internet provider which make all this possible. And if anyone would like to comment I can be reached at: ksikola@muskoka.com
