    Somebody on the Law-Lib discussion group gave a very brief note that leads
    to a very long walk down the memory lane of internet resources this
    weekend by simply posting this cryptic link that has so much buried under
    the link from Net-Happenings Internet Scout Report days.

    <http://scout.wisc.edu/Projects/PastProjects/NH/>

    Since the entire archives of LawLib-L is coming up with page not found
    error messages at this time, I cannot provide a link for this post,
    hopefully this valuable archives is just down at this time and not lost.
    Here then is my expanded post regarding the classic resource list
    Net-Happenings, that is actually still in existence through the auspices
    of the Educational Cyberplayground, also detailed below.

    Net-Happenings Goes Bye-Bye
    ResearchBuzz!
    <http://www.researchbuzz.org/2002/10/nethappenings_goes_byebye.shtml>

    Gleason Sackmann has announced that Net-Happenings list, hosted by
    Classroom Connect., is shutting down. Gleason says, "Since I am no longer
    employed by Classroom Connect, I am shutting down this list... I have
    enjoyed the years that the list has been running, and hope I can pick it
    up at a later date." He will send out a note if the list starts up again.

    <http://www.researchbuzz.org/2002/10/nethappenings_goes_byebye.shtml>

    [The Net-Happenings list did continue as tracable with the links above as
    a service of the Educational Cyberplayground, where it is a current
    active list administered by Karen Ellis. Prior to the Classroom Connect
    period, Net-Happenings was a service of the Internet Scout Report.]

    Our friend Gleason Sackmann and his wife Jan have both decided to retire

    NEWS: Gleason Sackmann Retires from Net-Happenings Discussion Group
    <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/mediamentor/message/15811>

    Net-Happenings over time has been one of the important lists found in
    groups of lists of value on Internet Lists of Lists like this one.

    Mailing Lists for Journalists and Broadcasters
    <http://www.synapse.net/radio/listserv.htm>

    Quoting

    "Mailing lists are often the best way to find useful information on the
    net. Because you have to take the trouble to subscribe to them, they are a
    little more work than just selecting and browsing a newsgroup. And because
    they require a bit of effort, and because they are sometimes moderated,
    the casual commentator with an off-topic comment is less likely to be
    heard."

    <snip>

    Some General Interest Mailing Lists
    Edupage - a thrice-weekly summary of news items on information technology.

    To subscribe to Edupage: send a message to: listproc@educom.edu, with the
    subject blank and in the body of the message type: subscribe edupage
    Jackie Robinson (assuming that your name is Jackie Robinson; if it isn't,
    substitute your own name). ... To cancel, send a message to:
    listproc@educom.edu and in the body of the message type: unsubscribe
    edupage. Edupage is also available via the WWW. For the French edition of
    Edupage, contact proulxj@ERE.UMontreal.CA.

    net-happenings - a list of new sources and sites on the Internet. To
    subscribe to net-happenings, send a message to
    majordomo@lists.internic.net with the subject blank and "subscribe
    net-happenings" in the message body.

    Both Edupage and net-happenings are archived:

    http://educom.edu/edupage.old for Edupage

    http://www.gi.net/NET for net-happenings.

    If readers go digging in older parts of these treasure troves, dead links
    in old messages are bound to occur, so permit me here to quote from my
    Temple University Library Guide for "General Internet & Print Resources"

    How to Update Dead Links in Any Guide Yourself

    .

    There are two methods that I most recommend for "updating" dead links in
    any list of websites. These are techniques that can be especially useful
    when one finds a resource they simply must see, only to find the website
    is gone when the hyperlink is clicked.

    First try the website URL in the Internet Archive.

    http://www.archive.org

    Secondly search the name of the website enclosed in quotation marks in:

    Google
    http://www.google.com

    Google News
    http://www.google.com/nwshp?hl=en&tab=wn&q=

    Google Scholar
    http://scholar.google.com/schhp?hl=en&q=&tab=ns

    Google Government
    http://www.google.com/ig/usgov

    The result of these searches may be finding the old site at a new location
    or finding other relevant content that you can use in place of the
    deceased website.

    Book Search works just like web search. Try a search on
    Google Book Search or on Google.com. When we find a
    book with content that contains a match for your search
    terms, we'll link to it in your search results.

    INTERNET SEARCH TOOLS :
    DATABASES:
    Meet the Googles : Google Scholar
    Google Scholar provides a simple way to broadly search for
    scholarly literature. From one place, you can search across
    many disciplines and sources: peer-reviewed papers, theses,
    books, abstracts and articles, from academic publishers,
    professional societies, preprint repositories, universities and
    other scholarly organizations. Google Scholar helps you identify
    the most relevant research across the world of scholarly research.

    Google News is an automated news aggregator provided
    by Google Inc. The initial idea, StoryRank-related to
    Google's PageRank formula-was developed by
    Krishna Bharat in 2001, the Principal Research Scientist
    of Google. No human is involved in the altering of the
    front page or story promotion, beyond tweaking the
    aggregation algorithm.
