day-long workshop specifically designed for network information center

* Upcoming Developments in Cyberspace. Future developments to watch
for, so you can plan ahead.
A free copy of a special introductory issue of NICLink will be distributed
to all NIC Fest attendees. NICLink, issued quarterly, is a CD-ROM
subscription service. The NICLink CD will contain the InfoSource, the
Information Services online information database that highlights the
information resources of the Internet. Additional information, images,
electronic books, and software from the Internet will be included in
future issues. The CD-ROM will be compatible with Macintosh, PC Windows,
and some UNIX configurations. The software used to present the data is
Interleaf's WorldView Press, which incorporates full database search
functions as well as hypertext linking capabilities to provide a powerful,
easy-to-use interface.
