• A "green" link to LOCAL WEATHER was placed in our main page.
  Also a link was placed in the cool links category to a weather
  radar map that shows the direction of storms, and the search engine
  SNAP was changed to its new name: NBCi.

• A "red" link to a SIG SURVEY was placed in our main page, asking Racug members
  to tell the Digital Photography and Web Page Editing SIG their feelings and degree of interest
  in various areas that could be covered during the monthly SIG meetings.

• The results of the 4-4-2001 officers election were posted
  A new message board was installed
  The MISCELLANEOUS link category was changed to COOL LINKS and two
  links to the fantastic photograph of the lights in our planet were posted.
  If you have any cool links, submit them to our Webmaster.

• A link to a new feature in the NextGen Services web site was included. NEXTGEN TECH Q&A
  This feature is called Computer Questions and Answers and is based on the presentations that
  Doug Ballance makes at RACUG meetings. He will also include subjects that he feels are of value
  to computer users. This feature is really a Message Board in which questions or comments may be
  posted after proper registration is performed.

• A link to the DATA FORMATS AND THEIR FILE EXTENSIONS web site
  that Doug Ballance from Next Gen Services mentioned on the February 7 meeting
  was included in the links / computer technical section of the RACUG home page.
  Other sites on the same subject can be found by entering such key words
  as files suffix into a search engine.

• Links to 3 picture albums were placed on a message in the message board and
  on the January 2001 Racug Activities page. These albums are an example of what is
  discussed at the meetings of the Digital Photography and Web Page Editing special interest group.

• MESSAGE BOARD     A message board was included in our web site.
  This board was found on the internet by Fritz Corbin and will be used as
  a vehicle for information interchange between Racug members. At a later time
  we will probably use a message board being developed by Doug Ballance of
  NextGen Services. Feel free to enter your inquires and ANSWER
  questions made by your fellow members. Even though this board and our
  web site is accessible to the internet world, chances are that access will
  be made mainly by Racug members.
