PreText Magazine (www.pretext.com) has launched with a first issue on the
topic of libraries & technology. Quite a few librarians and leading
lights have been interviewed or otherwise included in the stories.
"The Librarian is Dead, Long Live the Librarian" wins my award for
personal motto wanna-be. (http://www.pretext.com/oct97/features/story4.htm)
I was intrigued by the interview with Brewster Kahle
(http://www.pretext.com/oct97/columns/intview.htm) and his description of
his new product, Alexa. Kahle says that Alexa answers the question:
"Where did other people go after visiting this site?" I've not been able
to download Alexa (my system isn't compatible.) Has anyone on this list
tried it? Would you report your experience?
