| Description: |
The VL is the oldest catalog of the web, started
by Tim Berners-Lee, the creator of the web itself. Unlike commercial catalogs,
it is run by a loose confederation of volunteers, who compile pages of key
links for particular areas in which they are expert; even though it isn't
the biggest index of the web, the VL pages are widely recognised as being
amongst the highest-quality guides to particular sections of the web. --http://vlib.org/AboutVL.html |
