After you visit <strong>Leadership</strong> <strong>Network</strong>’s web site<br />
at http://www.leadnet.org/, you might check out these sites<br />
that are exceptional for their content:<br />
http://www.fastcompany.com is the site for the magazine by the<br />
same name recommended in the last issue<br />
of Next. Fast Company seeks to “define a<br />
new world of business and to capture the spirit of the men and women<br />
who are making it happen.” In addition to expanded articles from the<br />
magazine, there are discussion groups of business leaders to join. You<br />
will also find a selection of relevant conferences. Best of all, there is an<br />
easy search engine that saves you time on the site.<br />
http://www.regenerator.com is the gateway to the site for<br />
re:generation quarterly, a journal of culture<br />
and faith for the next generation. In addition<br />
to articles and features from the magazine, there is detailed information<br />
on the June conference, “The True and the Beautiful: Generation X at<br />
Worship” co-sponsored by <strong>Leadership</strong> <strong>Network</strong>. (See the ad on the back<br />
cover of NEXT.)<br />
http://www.altavista.digital.com is a great place to begin a web<br />
search. While everyone has their favorite<br />
search engine for sifting through the<br />
voluminous information found on the web,<br />
Alta Vista’s engine actually powers most of the other search sites. At the<br />
Alta Vista site, click on the advanced area to do searches using “and.”<br />
Your inquiry will also return you to a topics map where you can further<br />
refine the hits to the specific topic for which you are searching.<br />
http://www.christcom.net is the new face of the Christian<br />
Community <strong>Network</strong> which acts as a broker<br />
for other Christian oriented sites. Its best feature<br />
is a look at today’s news from a Christian<br />
perspective that in turn points you to further web resources to explore the<br />
issues raised by the news. It also includes internal discussion groups and<br />
pointers to other discussion groups about the topics raised by the news.<br />
http://www.gospelcom.net is the site of Gospel Communications<br />
<strong>Network</strong> and serves as a host site for 65<br />
other Christian organizations. You can<br />
search their resources and links by audience, content or service. Two<br />
additional resources are the on-line commentaries and columns of<br />
Quentin Schultz and Terry Mattingly.<br />
