Moise's Bibliography of the Vietnam War. Professor Edwin E. Moise of Clemson University has provided a vast bibliography of the Vietnam war. Containing mostly books, it is divided into three major sections: microfilmed document collections, general publications, and U.S. government publications. It is this organization, especially the latter two sections, that is the power of the site. General publications is divided into 45 sections (mostly chronological) and government publications is divided into 20 sections.

StarChildGeneral Astronomy Learning Center for Young Astronomers [QuickTime, .AVI]. High Energy Astrophysics Learning Center [Frames, QuickTime, .AVI]. NASA's well known High Energy Astrophysics Learning Center has created an astronomy site just for kids. StarChild, still under construction at this time, contains sections on the solar system, the universe, and "space stuff" (astronauts, space travel, and the Hubble Space Telescope, among others). It also includes a glossary with brief explanations of astronomy-related terms. The site is intensively graphical, includes QuickTime and .avi movies, and is intended for the 4-14 year age group.
The Rock Guide. Rolling Stone magazine and Magellan have teamed up to create this Internet rock resource directory. Whether you want to find out about an artist or a genre of music, obtain tickets for a show, or even gather information on starting your own music career, this site is an excellent starting point.
LookSmart - Subject directory [Java, JavaScript]. The new LookSmart subject directory, a part of the Reader's Digest World website, contains at present over 110,000 sites arranged in ten major subject categories, with numerous subcategories. The main advantage to the site is a layout that allows the user to see subcategories for each category while the main categories are still on the screen, which aids navigation.
DOWNLOAD.COM. c|net has added yet another service to its arsenal, DOWNLOAD.COM. This new site is a "source for commercial demos, drivers, and patches, with access to shareware and freeware applications." In addition to search capability, the site offers users a browsable directory with (at present) nine subject categories, from business to utilities. Each category is further divided into several subcategories. The site also offers a beginner's tutorial explaining how to download software (Toolkits) as well as brief profiles of notable shareware and freeware authors (Profiles)...although it is in no way as comprehensive as c|net's Shareware.Com.
