Links


Warning: This link collection is mostly old stuff and some links are probably expired.

In early days of the internet it was customary to feature a link collection in a homepage. I did that too.

Links tend to get outdated, and I don’t actively maintain this list. So there’s a chance a link doesn’t work anymore or leads to wrong place. Please notify me if that happens.

Please note that I don’t want to receive requests for adding new entries to this page, and probably will not answer to such requests. I’m getting such requests regularly which are clearly just for search engine optimization (SEO) purposes for a given website. However, if you find one of the links is simply broken, I’m of course glad to hear that.

So here’s some places to go with a single click.
