The CURRENT issue for Scientific American is the April one (I was just
reading mine last night) so you'll need to go to the Previous issue to
look at the recommended articles. But the March's there -- and I concur
that it was a good section on the Internet!

: In the March-issue of Scientific American there's a special report called: : The Internet: Fulfilling the Promise (page 41-73). Several contributors are : giving their view on very diverse subjects, such as 'Searching the web' : (Clifford Lynch), 'Finding pictures on the web' (Gary Stix), 'Filtering : information on the internet' (Paul Resnick), 'Multilingualism and the : internet' (Bruno Oudet), Going digital (Michael Lesk) and a lot more. : I really liked the article Michael Lesk wrote about digital libraries. Some : lines: : : "Electronic libraries will make today's Internet pale by comparison. But : building them will not be easy." : "By 2000, half the material accessed in major libraries will be digital." : Go and check it out now at your local bookstore (or somewhere).
