I believe that anyone who works with students, patients and/or clients should have (at the very least) a personal web page with biographical background and information about what they can do for those who seek their services.
More and more of what we learn and how we communicate is based on information posted on the World Wide Web. Almost all professional groups now have their own web sites and an increasing number of individual people in business and education also have their own web sites.
The links on this page lead to Interesting Groups (worthwhile organizations) that I have personal knowledge of and to Unique Individuals (interesting people) I know or know of who use the world wide web effectively as part of what they do. The lists below represents only a small example of some of the web sites I have found to be of particular interest and I will endeavor to add to it as I discover additional information.
