        Title:      There's Gold in them thar Networks!
                    Searching for Treasure in all the Wrong Places

A wealth of information exists on the network.  In fact, there is so
much information that you could spend your entire life browsing.  This
paper will present some of the "gold nuggets" of information and file
repositories on the network that could be useful.

The ultimate goal is to make the route to these sources of information
invisible to you.  At present, this is not easy to do.  The author
will explain some of the techniques that can be used to make these
nuggets easier to pick up so that we all can be richer.

This memo provides information for the Internet community.  It does
not specify an Internet standard.  Distribution of this memo is
unlimited.
