If you can't get there from here it ain't on the web.
It ain't pretty, but it sure is practical.

Re:Why is this shocking? by strictnein · 2004-06-18 04:30 · Score: 1 · on EU Pushes to Limit Internet Speech

I can tell you've never been to Europe

Actually I've been to Europe twice now (which is unfortunately much less than the rest of my family, including my wife), albeit just to England and Ireland (where I had my first taste of Guinness ever about a block from the brewery and now I'm spoiled - it doesn't taste quite right in the US). If everything goes well I will be heading to Italy next year.

nor read any European news outlets
Actually I take a look at a number of European news sites weekly. Typically the BBC, the Guardian and a smattering of random European newspapers. Try this site for links to papers from pretty much every European country. I also visit here regularly. I typically focus on French and German newspapers. The problem, of course, is finding fully translated English versions (I know enough German and Spanish to be dangerous, but not enough to read a newspaper). If you've got links to ones you'd recommend, I'd gladly take a look.

But then again, why would you? Clearly you are happy with your "fair and balanced" Fox News.

In my post it's pretty clear that I view Fox News as having a conservative slant.

I would be ashamed comparing Google to that RefDesk site. It is so riddled with popups it should have been a post on this Slashdot story.

Google is a class act. It's right up there with RefDesk for how to provide a quality Internet service with eloquence and style. If Google comes onboard with an email service I'll be one of the first in line.

Your comment "It's a bit of a pain to get news from a wide variety of sources...." really hits home. I hate fumbling around the internet, jumping from site to site, looking for info. I prefer sites that offer a wide spectrum of choices, something for everyone, and will take you whereever you want to go with a single click. One such site is Refdesk. I found it a while back when I read that it's Colin Powell's favorite site. I couldn't resist the temptation to check it out. I'm glad I did.
