AUSSIE LINKS

Adelaide, sweet Adelaide, is home. A gentle, arty city stretching from the Hills to the warm gulf waters. Here is a glimpse of our very civilized urban lifestyle.    http://www.adelaide.sa.gov.au/

There is good art to be found from this site, too.

Adelaide is the Festival City. We are immersed in the arts and indulge in several major arts festivals held biennially. The Adelaide Festival is the biggie:

• http://www.va.com.au

Ngapartji is a funny name. It is spoken as "N'parGee". It is an Aboriginal word which loosely means a place of joining - and it is the name of South Australia's wonderful Multimedia Centre:

The Barossa Valley is Australia's Napa Valley. It is a long-established wine region with a strong Lutheran German heritage. I love this area very much - and particularly Peter Lehmann's wines.
• http://mtx.net.au/~exy/Barossa_Valley.HTML

And here, Peter Lehmann Wines homepage - with the Mentor starring as my favorite of many sublime Barossa drops:

Kumarangk is the Aboriginal name for Hindmarsh Island - a scrap of land which is the centre of an historic and controversial battle of cultural values. This is the story from our Ngarrindjeri people, the original inhabitants of the land! The sad saga is still unfolding.

Urban Ecology - the Adelaide Eco-City site.

From tiny acorns, mighty oaks grow. I was the tiny acorn of this magnificent, award-winning movie made here in Adelaide. It was my article in the paper that set director Scott Hicks on his path - resulting, 10 years later, in this best of all possible films, Shine:
• http://www.flf.com/shine/index.html

Culture and commerce can go hand-in-hand. Here's one of the most exquisite showcases of Aboriginal art and artefacts you're likely to see (on a site designed by Nanou who also designed this site) - and the bonus is that, if you like anything, you can buy it and support the community at the same time.

FUN, FRIENDS and INTERESTS

My mate Wayne Anthoney is a mathematician who happens to be a clown - and a few other things, now including web wizard. He's the only person I know who has sold plays on the Internet. He also works helping Aboriginal communities up north. Check out his work:

A new net journal which is what its name suggests - interesting columns written by people who have something to say:

People are always asking me for this URL. Annie Sprinkle's Home Page - the post modernist porn queen who failed to shock us when she turned up in town. We liked her. She has a serious message behind the sexual gimmickery. I still wear her cervix badge!
• http://www.infi.net/~heck/sprinkleshow.html

The Voluntary Euthanasia site - a compassionate option, an issue for all humanity. Stand up for choice!

The American Reporter is an old-fashioned journos' new-era net paper. Hard news, on the ball and as fresh as hot, buttered toast!
• http://www.oz.net/reporter/arbook.html

It's unfair to say that women are poorly represented on the net. Women are grrrls and they are firing on all cylinders. This Feminist site is a good springboard for lots of good resources.

It beats singing in the shower. Do the terminal sing-along. Computer karaoke with Gilbert and Sullivan. I love it!

It is not unknown that I have some affinity with the Buddhist world. This is a pleasant core site which honor's the Dalai Lama's Gyuto Monks and their visits to Australia. It has good Tibet links.

I have been a dedicated IRC (Internet Relay Chat) junkie for many years now, usually popping on to the Undernet late in the Australian night when work is done. There I mingle with some delightful people in a jovial borderless international arena. Our communities host their own websites. And very good they are, too:
#Ageless

  # Msgs from the Forties
• http://www.cochems.com/news/

One of the people I call "family" is Rachel Harris, commonly known as rachelh, whom I met on IRC. We've visited each other - I to Portland twice and she to Adelaide once. She is a net wizard, among other things, and her homepage is impressive.
• http://www.hevanet.com/rachel/homepage.html

My old Adelaide friend Tim Potter's homepage is not ordinary! It's as entertaining as it is enlightening.
• http://www.users.on.net/pottertim/

Journos to the fore! This noble Adelaide-based freelancer used to have a real name, Bob Evans, before he was sucked into cyberspace became "bevans". I like bevans. It has minimalist cachet. His homepage is rich in the joys of Australian olive oil - which is a lifestyle superlative rivalled only by our wine (and lobster and oysters and stonefruit and...)
• http://www.on.net/users/bevans/

And this is the very smart homepage of a San Francisco IRC friend commonly known as Christuna.
• http://www.tdl.com/~tuna/

Netizens on holiday. This is an extremely diverting diary!
• http://www.ozemail.com.au/~davesag/4-95H2.html
