A collection of pseudo random World Wide Web sites and information available on the World Wide Web to give an idea of what the Web is like to people without Web connections. In practise, this is a selection of random sites that I and a few others happened to be browsing through at the time. Many of the local links do not work on pages and parts may be missing. Some weblinks are included without local copies. These were not included mainly due to space limitaions or permissions not being obtained.
