Dear LM_NET Colleagues, Here is a free online workshop that has a good reputation. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Wed, 31 Jul 1996 10:24:14 -0700 From: Tom Newell <tomn@internic.net> Subject: InterNIC hosts ROADMAP96 --------------------------------------------------- The InterNIC is pleased to announce that it is now hosting the ROADMAP96 workshop series authored and led by Patrick Crispen. Subscription information and details may be found at the URL: http://rs.internic.net/nic-support We are in the process of preparing HTML versions of the lessons which will be hosted at the URL: http://rs.internic.net/roadmap96 Patrick's announcement and details are appended to this message. Regards, Tom -- Tom Newell liaison@internic.net +1 703 742 4796 NIC Liaison InterNIC Support Services PGP Key fingerprint = 5E 86 3D 13 73 19 69 08 6B 54 6A 7D AD A2 37 6D ############################ ROADMAP96 on LISTSERV@LISTS.INTERNIC.NET (*Please pay particular attention to the three "notes" at the bottom of this announcement*) ROADMAP96 is a 27-lesson, Internet training workshop designed to teach new "Net travelers" how to travel around the rapidly expanding (and often-times confusing) "Information Superhighway" without getting lost. The original Roadmap workshop, which debuted in the Fall of 1994, rapidly became the most popular on-line Internet training workshop in history. ROADMAP96 is a completely revised and updated version of the original Roadmap workshop. ROADMAP96's lessons are primarily written for people with accounts on command-line systems (like UNIX, VAX, and VM), but EVERYONE is welcome to participate in the workshop! The entire ROADMAP96 workshop will take place on the ROADMAP96 list (ROADMAP96 is a distribution list, not a discussion list). ROADMAP96 covers: E-mail; LISTSERVs, Majordomo, Listproc, and other e-mail distribution systems; Usenet; FTP; Archie; Gopher; Veronica; Address Searches; the Web; and many other topics. Since a number of ROADMAP96's participants only have e-mail access to the Internet, the ROADMAP96 workshop lessons will also teach you how to access many of the Internet's tools (FTP, Archie, Gopher, etc.) through e-mail! Thanks to the kind folks at the Internet Network Information Center (the InterNIC), ROADMAP96 now has a permanent home ... and new ROADMAP96 workshop start every two weeks! All you have to do to participate in one of the free Roadmap96 workshop sessions is subscribe to the ROADMAP96 e-mail distribution list! To be a part of the next ROADMAP96 workshop session -- new sessions start every two weeks -- just send an e-mail letter to LISTSERV@LISTS.INTERNIC.NET with the command SUBSCRIBE ROADMAP96 YOURFIRSTNAME YOURLASTNAME in the body of your e-mail letter, replacing YOURFIRSTNAME and YOURLASTNAME with your first and last names. NOTES: 1) I am *still* working on a Web workshop (called "Atlas") that I hope to introduce this Fall. I just want y'all to be aware that Roadmap96 is not "Atlas." 2) You *must* use the command SUBSCRIBE ROADMAP96 YOURFIRSTNAME YOURLASTNAME to be able to subscribe to ROADMAP96. If you leave the "96" off of "ROADMAP96" you will receive a letter from the LISTSERV telling you that "you are not allowed to subscribe." REMEMBER: SUBSCRIBE TO "ROADMAP96" *NOT* TO "ROADMAP!" 3) HTML, ZIP, and SEA versions of all of the Roadmap96 lessons will *eventually* be available on the Roadmap homepage at <http://www.ua.edu/~crispen/roadmap.html>.
