Linking to My Wazillion Navbars Project and Suggesting Links for Me
|
This article is part of the Wazillion Navbars Project: a project to explore and write about the Yahoo! WebRing system. For a list of these articles
click here or see the section menu at the bottom of this page.
Note that the Yahoo! WebRing system no longer exists. It has been spun off to the independent WebRing.com system. The Wazillion Navbars Project has been closed. These pages are thus, no longer accurate and do not apply to the new WebRing.com system. Instead, these pages are being maintained for a "historical record".
For current information on the WebRing.com system, see my webring subsection
about the WebRing.com system.

Most webmasters ask that people link directly to their "home" page. But because of the importance of the Wazillion Navbars Project to me I actually encourage other sites to link directly to my Wazillion Navbars Project.
If you would like to link directly to my Wazillion Navbars Project I have a couple of suggestions and requests. Of course, they are just suggestions and requests: (I've never denied anyone permission just because they couldn't incorporate all of these.)
- Please link to the "first" or "primary" page of my Wazillion Navbars Project unless there is a reason to link to a specific page. I have created special URLs for the primary page:
http://www.JamesSHuggins.com/wazillion
and
http://www.Wazillion.org
Or you can link to the actual URL, whichever you prefer.
- When you list the "title" of the link, here are the one's I'd prefer, in descending order of preference:
James S. Huggins' Refrigerator Door: The Wazillion Navbars Project
or
James S. Huggins' Refrigerator Door: Wazillion Navbars Project
or
James S. Huggins' Refrigerator Door: Wazillion Navbars
or
James S. Huggins' Wazillion Navbars Project
or
James S. Huggins' Wazillion Navbars
or
Huggins' Wazillion Navbars Project
or
The Wazillion Navbars Project
- If you link to another page in the Wazillion Navbars Project, use your best judgment to identify the page.
- When you print my name, please include my middle initial "S.". (It has importance to me for family reasons.)
- When you construct the possessive form of my name, please place the apostrophe after the "s" at the end and do not add an additional "s". This helps conform with the formal "title" of my site.
- When you link to any page on my site, I'd appreciate you letting me know. I like to (try to) keep track of these things.
- If any of these pose a problem at all, remember, they are just my suggestions and requests. Do what you can, and go ahead and link. I've never denied anyone permission just because they couldn't incorporate all of these.
- Finally, if you have any questions or special requests, or if you have a link (yours?) that you'd like to suggest for me, don't hesitate to email me and ask. I'd love to hear from you. And if you suggest your link to me, be sure to give me your requests and suggestions for the link.
Thanks again for linking to my Wazillion Navbars Project. This section of my site is important to me and I appreciate your efforts to share it with those who visit your site.

News and Announcements

WebRing.com
Changes Big Time --- It was October 2001 that WebRing.com came into
existence following the end of Yahoo! Webring. Now, 5 years later, WebRing.com
is changing again. Moving from primarily a free service to primarily a paid
service, the system is undergoing massive change. Stay tuned.

Ringlink
Activity --- While
Ringlink has not released a new version
since
Version 3.2
on 21.Feb.2005, the system seems to be getting a lot of activity. Many people
are discovering this great webring system and moving their webrings here. If you
don't know about Ringlink,
definitely check out this great webring system. I personally recommend
it.

WoW
--- The World of Webrings features the World of Webrings discussion list. It offers a forum for both
webring owners (ringmasters) and webring members to discuss the latest hot topics about all webrings, including WebRing.com,
Ringlink
,
Alt-Webring, RingSurf, Bravenet and others. If you belong to any webring in any webring service, you should join this list.

RingSurf
Passes 3 Year Anniversary --- It was 3 years ago, on 16.Aug.2003 when the WoW list list noted that RingSurf's domain name registration had changed.
Then the new owner came forward. A RingSurf Feature List was developed and debated. Then, on Thanksgiving day, 27.Nov.2003 the new owner posted on the WoW list that the new RingSurf is up! If you haven't checked it out lately, see what has happened in the last three years.

Article About Webrings --- Check out this excellent Salon.com article about the history of Yahoo! and WebRing.com:
The Strange Saga of Yahoo and Webring
. For some, it will bring back memories. For others, it will explain the history.
Now, I wonder if they will update it to talk about the latest WebRing.com
changes.

Webring Sections and Subsections
The Webring Section is a large section of my website. I have divided it into four major "subsections".
- General Information
- The WebRing.com System
- Webrings I Own and Belong To
- The Wazillion Navbars Project
Each "subsection" has it's own special "logo".
As you travel in the various subsections you will find, near the bottom of each page, links to pages within that subsection and also links to the other subsections. To go to any subsection, just click on the "logo" or on the text link for that subsection.
Webrings: General Information
This subsection includes general information about webrings. Webrings can be hosted by a variety of different services. This section deals with the overall concepts and issues, not with any one particular "brand" of webring.
It includes my Webring FAQ, links to articles about webrings, and general help information. Click here or on the graphic.
The WebRing.com System
This subsection includes specific information about the WebRing.com system.
While not the only webring system on the net, it is the best known and the most used. I own many webrings in this system and belong to many webrings in this system. (I also own and belong to many webrings in other systems as well.) Click here or on the graphic.
Webrings I Own and Belong To
This subsection shows all the webrings I own and links to all the webrings to which I belong. This includes webrings in Ringlink, RingSurf, Bravenet and the WebRing.com system as well.
If you are looking to join one of my webrings, this is a good place to start. If you wonder about the webrings I belong to, this is the place to go. Click here or on the graphic.
