Short Cuts:WEB SITES WE LIKE
Shop ’til your fingers drop. When you can’t
find what you’re shopping for on the Web, Shopguide (www.shopguide.com), is
the place to start. The site has a search engine, plus other
interesting options that were under construction at press time,
including a Bargain Basement, ShopGuru Cafe and International
Bazaar.
Expanding capabilities. EventSource (www.eventsource.com),
the event-planning search engine, has a new feature called One
Click Destinations. Each month, several places are highlighted with
information on total guest rooms, exhibit space, average hotel-room
costs and listings of event sites, resorts, unique meeting spaces,
recreation suggestions and more.
Picked for the podium. Need help with speaker
searches? Leading Authorities (www.leadingauthorities.com)
has a database of more than 600 speakers, searchable by name,
topic, location, fee or any combination of criteria. A fun addition
is the Who’s Hot? page, which showcases several in-demand
presenters and offers sample videos online.
