\n————————-<\/p>\n

Like a child who enjoys reading, a cyberpoet will return often to hir
\nfavorite net.repository of information and check for new ‘books.’ Unlike
\neveryday reality [ER], there are thousands of libraries and also unlike ER
\nthey are usually less then 100 keystrokes away. No fossil fuel is burned;
\nthey are almost never closed; and the cost of use is minimal, undoubtedly
\na few steps in the right direction.<\/p>\n

A cyberpoet with a good memory or a handy Personnal Digital Assistant
\n[PDA](such as a Newton, Sharp, or Intelligent Agent) will often be able to
\nlist off hir favorite net.repositories upon request. However it is often
\nuseful to have a pre-made list of common sites to forward if time is short
\nor the PDA is without batteries. Consider this such a list.<\/p>\n

-=- 02.2.Museums, galleries & stuph |
\n—————————————<\/p>\n

Every subculture has art it can call it’s own. Indeed, some would say that
\nwithout art it would not really be a culture at all. The world of
\nvirtual culture is no exception. Civilizations, uncivilized that they are,
\nhave been prone to collecting art in museums, supposedly to make public
\nviewing easier. The result, however, is that only a few people see this
\nart every year and the scarcity of this viewing makes the art-world seem
\nelitist. To some extent, this has been replicated in virutal space.<\/p>\n

However, the medium of the net allows for wider distribution and new
\nspaces for all forms of art. New spaces, even new artforms, pop up all the
\ntime and hopefully find their way into this document. This activity seems
\nto be both motivated by and motivating a groundswell in popular art and
\ncomputer mediated art.<\/p>\n

\n————————————-<\/p>\n

The internet is international, national and pinpoint local; private,
\npublic, profit, non-profit, all at the same time. This structure makes it
\nnot only unreasonable to impose a government upon the net, but nearly
\nimpossible. So when you talk about Gov’t on the net, you are talking about
\nthe Goverment’s attempts to reach out to the net.citizens and, ideally, to
\nlisten to them.<\/p>\n

-o0 The Legislative Branch 0o-<\/p>\n

o Congress Email\/FTP
\n – mail congress@hr.house.gov and ftp ftp.senate.gov
\n – sadly I only found two senators who were using this (Alaska &
\nMass)<\/p>\n

o The Congress is in the process of establishing its own electronic public
\naccess links. You can get more information from any of the following.
\nPlease remember that these are not connected in any way to any White
\nHouse online projects (due to the separation of powers), so if you have
\nany problems with their systems, you will have to contact their system
\nadministrators for assistance.<\/p>\n

Senate gopher site: gopher ftp.senate.gov

-o0 The Executive Branch 0o-<\/p>\n

The official Party Line: “The White House e-mail system is under
\nconstruction. This is a new project and suffers from all of the problems
\ncommon to a startup operation. The Communications office is currently
\nworking on defining what this system will do, as well as trying to come up
\nwith equipment and staffing to make sure that it works. E-mail messages
\nare currently being printed out and responses are being sent out via US
\nMail.<\/p>\n

“Nobody wants this new venture to work more than the staff that has
\ndevoted so many hours to getting it up and running. But much time and
\neffort will be required before the system is truly interactive. In the
\nmean time, they will need a little patience from the electronic community.
\nIf you send a message to the White House, please include a US Post office
\naddress for replies.”<\/p>\n

On the Internet, send to:
\npresident@whitehouse.gov or vice.president@whitehouse.gov<\/p>\n

-=- 02.5.Organizations |
\n—————————–<\/p>\n

Home, home on the net. The ability of the Internet to bring people
\ntogether who share common interests is amazing. Someone may start a
\nmailing list to discuss a local environmental problem, then suddenly
\nsomeone from halfway around the world joins in and you learn they are
\nhaving the same problem as well. Before you know it, the mailing list
\nbecomes a clearing house for information regarding environmental
\npollution. That is one sort of organization on the net. Other’s join the
\nnet with the explicit intention of operating as an Organization. Both are
\ngrowing in numbers everyday.<\/p>\n
