Suggest any resource that you believe members of the target audience of The Network would find useful.

The second and equally important rule is that all users must have free access. them. If you want to promote or advertise a resource that is not free and open to all users or restricted in some way, you should consider leasing a personal webpage or one that you organize as a sponsor.

Free-access resources available through commercial websites are given consideration but they must to complete within themselves. They may, however, be surrounded by promotional messages. Links and comments about resources available through commercial websites and those that promote locations are published for free along with acknowledgements. The overriding objective is to build The Network with useful resources in support of its mission.

FAQ: I can't find the resource I want. Now what?

The Network provides resources to help users accomplish a mission. After years of experience we (who we are) concluded that it's impractical to offer a network of open access websites filled with resources in anticipation of their use. Search engines contribute to the scenario much an item of the game Rock-paper-scissors. Its the nature of the Internet links become broken and much of the information posted has a limited shelf life but remains to be reported as search results. With ambitions larger than our stock of resources, we are equally guilty with many others of seemingly Also, its the nature of the Internet that links are all to often broken with inadequate explanation. This being the case, we came up with two ways that we believe the mission is better served:

We serve members of the .network target audience through a search promise.

We serve members by maintaining an open access resource archive.

To best understand the meaning of mission support resource take a look at the .network mission statement, then some resource-related definitions beginning with resource itself.

The one-word definition of stand-alone is complete in the sense that it is something independent as a unit in and of itself:. In other words, a stand-alone is self contained ... having all necessary parts or components operational or steps in place so as to be complete. For example, a stand-alone resource can be used to accomplish something without having to add to it or combine it with anything else. As an example that specifically applies to The Network, it can be said that a stand-alone resource for site selection is a location package that completely answers of the questions set-forth at the time it was requested. The organization or person providing the package is referred to as a resource suppler. When location data suppliers are recontacted and asked for assistance, they convert to service providers. The Network uses the expression resource and service provider.

We are happy to publish links and comments about resources available within commercial websites as long as they stand alone. Resources that are complete only up to a point where they become a bait for selling something are not acceptable. The Network provides the Global Registry of Contacts with additional opportunities for resource and service providers to promote what they offer. It is OK, however, to submit a resource that is complete in and of itself but contains or is surrounded by a sales pitch.
