Greetings!

Over the past few years i've seen numerous 'network information sources' change
for the better, e.g. Before 'archie' came along, numerous people around the net
would collect and post regularly information as to which sites had what
available for FTP'ing. And thanks to volunteers who in their spare time compile
lists of information that they regularly post out, e.g. in the music news
groups, lists of upcoming album releases. comp.mail.maps, lists of museums in
the military newsgroups etc...

Now what i would like to start putting together is a list of all the worlds
computing sites! yes, yes, i know what a 'huge' number are out there... The
idea is that people send me details of their site, and followup details when
something changes so that i can keep updating the list, and i'll post the
information out into this newsgroup and whoever wants to be on the mailing list
and regular intervals.

Here's the information and format i'm asking for:

Company Name, Full Address, Contact Email address.
n)	Computer Manufacturer, Model, Benchmark?

...for a suggestion. I'd like to hear from people as to what they think of my
idea, and if they like it, what info they would like to see. I was thinking of
adding somekind of benchmark? so that i could total up sites and put them into
somekind of order as to which is the most powerful.
