A New In Site

www.altculture.com

Modern culture! It is a jungle that mesmerizes those who try to tame its tangled tracks. Blaze a trail through the dense undergrowth of information by paying a visit to www.altculture.com. This alt(ernative) Web site is an unprecedented research project that has become a modern culture compendium, spanning music, sports and politics. Launched as a promotional vehicle for the book alt.culture by Steven Daly and Nathaniel Wice — reviewed by the Washington Post as “an exhaustive encyclopedia of the cultural edge” — the site soon gained autonomy. It aims at being both an event guide and an online compass. It also documents and participates in the nexus of popular culture and digital media. So if you are in the mood for a little electronic enlightenment, let www.altculture.com draw you a map for a user-friendly information safari. <<< KA
