WinGlobe: A 2Mb download that puts the world at your fingertips. WinGlobe puts a colourful and realistic model of the Earth on your desktop. It can be set to rotate just like the real thing, or show where it is night or day. The program is available free to schools and provides basic information on each country such as population and principal cities. WinGlobe also tells you the time in each location, which makes it useful for scheduling overseas phone calls.

Peter Raos: A local online catalogue from master glass artist Peter Raos: "I approach glass as a painter would approach a painting ... First I interpret my ideas as an image on paper, then I try to translate that image and maximise it into glass."
