Computer-related Sites
- Adobe Systems main web server; all kinds of Adobe news, free utilities and software updates.
- Apple Computer main web server; company and product info, with online tech support and information as well as system software updates. Check out their new online store.
- CIAC (Livermore Labs) computer security information site; everything from virus info to internet security and PGP.
- Lynda Weinman's web design page is a great resource on using the web intelligently; Weinman is the author of a number of indispensible web graphics and design books. Unfortunately, Jon Wiederspan's Macintosh internet tools directory, which originally occupied this space, is no longer online.
- Netscape Communications: makers of the Netscape web browser and other products. Their web page allows you to download the latest versions, and has links to lots of useful things, including web browser helper apps, HTML guides, cutting edge sites, etc. Too bad we missed their IPO.
- Team OS/2 Online: links to OS/2 information, software, etc from the Team OS/2 support network. MicroWho?
- Alta Vista: a very thorough key word search index. Possibly turns up more matches than Yahoo.
- Yahoo: The Yahoo site is one of the most comprehensive WWW site index around. Literally thousands of links to web sites are organized by subject and are fully searchable. A good place to start if you're asking "I wonder if there's a site on...." There probably is.
Other Interesting Sites
- EPA: U.S. Environmental Protection Agency web site. Access to EPA publications, public environmental data, information on EPA programs and much more including environmental -related Federal Register documents.
- AID: U.S. Agency for International Development.
- OECD: Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. Long known as the "rich countries' club," the OECD has been sponsoring a lot of research on the problems of transition in Central and East Europe. Among other things, this site has details about their paper and electronic publications.
- National Public Radio: Current news and features from NPR; audio files of various stories, transcript abstracts and other info. Includes transcript search and ordering information.
- PBS On-Line:
- National Audubon Society: info on society's activities, lobbying, and membership
- Sierra Club: info about club, membership, chapters, publications, and lobbying activities
- University of Michigan Home Page: gateway to info resources at UM, the graduate alma mater of most Okno partners. Great computer, library, and other research-related resources; one highlight is the Web-based access to the giant Current Population Survey and National Election Study datasets (forms allow you to select variables and cases for create-your-own custom datasets), with more to come.
- Here, also, are some links to a few of our undergraduate alma maters: Smith College, Yale University, Oberlin College, Iowa State University, and Connecticut College.
