The purpose of this page is to provide links that are useful for quick access to reference info. I use this page to look up words in the dictionary, names in the phonebook, stock quotes, weather, street maps and directions to addresses, etc. I also keep links to links pages, search engines, news sources, computer magazines, computer vendors, computer programming references, etc. I try to keep it lightweight -- minimal graphics, no applets, etc. I may eventually split it up, but prefer to keep it as one large page for now. Feel free to download and store a local copy of this page in case you want it sometime when this site is not available to you.
