Happy Birthday SuperNet !
However you've found your way here, welcome to my corner of the World Wide Web. I hope you find something to interest, enlighten or amuse you among the pages here. Most of the content here, and much other neat stuff, can be reached from pointers on this page, so this is as good a place as any to start exploring.
We've a page on Tempest, a FirstClass BBS, as well as an article on connecting a Mac to a VGA monitor. Marc Perton has written an interesting article, The Greening of the Internet, on the practices and possibilities of online advertising, which he has allowed us to put online. We've also a profile of Asia CD, some stuff about ExcelTalk and a page of John's favorite overseas WWW sites.
Local WWW sites at the moment are few and far between. The biggest and best is run by The Chinese University of Hong Kong. Among the other higher educational institutions the Department of Building and Real Estate of Hong Kong Polytechnic, the Computer Centre of the University of Hong Kong, and the Department of Mathematics of Hong Kong Baptist College also have home pages.
Three of the Internet Service providers in Hong Kong have home pages: Hong Kong Supernet have some pages on the services they provide, while Hongkong Internet Gateway & Services and the Association of Internet Resources run pages with a number of links to the worldwide Internet. Other Hong Kong internetters tuned into cyberspace include Enzo Michelangeli and Raju Daryanani of AIR, and five other Supernetters, Raymond Lowe, Rodney Haywood, Sunil Mulchand, Brad Collins and Antonio Inacio.
If you are interested in setting up your own home page look at our Quick 'n' Dirty guide to setting up your own home page. To go with this we've some hints and tips on home page creation. There's also a page of editorial, with more thoughts on home page creation in general, and these pages in particular, and a (musical !) test page. Lastly a word of advice. I strongly recommend you choose to use Mosaic NetScape to browse these pages, as all my pages and graphics have been redone to take advantage of NetScape's way of working.
