Research links update

Posting has been slow and I haven't posted research links in a couple weeks. Here are a few things I bookmarked recently:

Reference:
  • Audubon's Birds of America, the entire volume with images, scanned. From Audubon Soc.
  • Religious Demographic Profile: United States quick recent stats from Pew Forum/Census; note pull-down menu of several other country profiles.
  • Native Wiki "a free, open-to-the-public library of information about indigenous nations and peoples (past and present) of the world. "

    Government/Politics:
  • C-SPAN's Campaign Network

    Business:
  • Email Patterns, a wiki for telemarketers, helps determine what a company's email protocol would be.

    News:
  • Das Zeit: Archive all editions back to 1946.
  • The Atlantic: Back Issues: all issues back to 1995 now available for free online, along with selected stories from earlier years. An Editor's Note annouces the current issue will also now be available without subscription. Note that this prompted Doc Searls, a champion of free archives, to try to subscribe to the print version online. Didn't work.

    Statistics:
  • Worldwide Military Expenditures from Global Security.

    Journalism:
  • WiredJournalists.com.

  • 2 Comments:

    • I've visited the email patterns link, but I cannot able to find anything really interesting or informative apart from few(actually three) of indirect promotional links...

    • Yes, I found that to be true too, and hesitated to link this at all. But I figured it may become more useful in the future as people add to it.....
