===== A message from the 'landwatch' discussion list =====


Hi and FYI


From: "Glen R. Barry" <grbarry@students.wisc.edu>
Subject: Announcing www.eco-portal.com -- the Internet's First True Ecological Portal

Announcing the Internet's First True Ecological Portal

www.eco-portal.com/


Full Text Searches of Reviewed Environmental Internet Content



Ecological Enterprises proudly announces their new Eco-Portal site at http://www.eco-portal.com/. Those interested in the environment can carry out full text searches through an extensive list of reviewed environmental Internet content. This premier content has been fully indexed to make it searchable from one search screen.
This goes well beyond the typical "Portal" site, composed of lists of links to sites of varying information quality. Eco-Portal searches allow you to explore the entire content of hundreds of different environmental sites at the same time--for free. Portal searches are currently available for the Best in Forest, Rainforest, Temperate Forest, Biodiversity, Water, Climate Change and Ozone Layer web sites.


Each of Eco-Portal's current 600+ indexed sites have been chosen based on their usefulness to environmentalists working to familiarize themselves with the problems, and to find solutions. The Eco-Portal works much like Yahoo, Lycos, or other search engines-- only sites have been carefully chosen for inclusion. So rather than getting millions of hits of various worth and quality when you search for "rainforests" on a major search engine, on the Eco-Portal you will get several thousand highly pertinent hits. You can extensively customize your search, and instantly jump to the pages that meet your search criteria.


Ecological Enterprises asks this of those receiving this announcement:


1. Check out the Eco-Portal, and continue to use it for your important environmental conservation work.


2. If you are a webmaster of an environment web site, add a link to http://www.eco-portal.com/ with the description: "Eco-Portal -- Full Text Searches of Reviewed Environmental Internet Content".


3. Sites are being added daily and additional portal subjects will be rolled out periodically. Please submit sites to be added to the Eco-Portal, make suggestions regarding additional Eco-Portal topics, and give us other suggestions on how to improve usability.


Thank you for your time and concern for the environment.
