It has been brought to my attention that certain members of my viewing audience hold the worthiness of a web site to be directly proportional to the number of links it has to the outside world. Well, while that is not a view to which I subscribe, I deeply respect the opinion of such people. This page is dedicated to them!
Of course it is still in its infancy, and as such may seem somewhat disorganised. When I have a few minutes to spare I'll probably inject a healthy dose of logic into the page, split links into more meaningful categories, that sorta thing. It also has the potential to become a fair bit bigger than it currently is... Until then, though, WYSIWYG!
