Sundial information in the World Wide Web (WWW) -----------------------------------------------
A lot of information about sundials is already available in the WWW. A starting point for this may be http://aibn55.astro.uni-bonn.de:8000/~pbrosche/hist_astr/ha_items_instrum.html , a document among the History of Astronomy WWW pages http://aibn55.astro.uni-bonn.de:8000/~pbrosche/astoria.html . Additions to this document are very appreciated but should be limited to historical sundials. Wolfgang R. Dick Secretary of the Working Group for the History of Astronomy in the Astronomische Gesellschaft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Appendix: The World Wide Web ---------------------------- The World Wide Web (WWW) is the universe of network-accessible information, an embodiment of human knowledge. It is an initiative started at CERN, now with many participants, and is growing exponentially. The WWW has a body of software, and a set of protocols and conventions. It uses hypertext and multimedia techniques to make the web easy for anyone to roam, browse, and contribute to. Each highlighted phrase (in color or underlined) is a hyperlink to another document or information resource somewhere on the Internet. The access to the WWW is available for everyone at prices comparable to that of a telephone connection. To learn how to get access one may just go to the next bookshop and buy one of the numerous books available.
