the Starport in Cyberspace
You see a huge room with gently curving walls. It looks as though it
might be a kind of lobby, if it ever gets cleaned up. The floor is
littered with piles of boxes labeled ``HyperSpace Express --
Movers to the Stars'', and a few labeled ``Oasis CD
Manufacturing''. The place looks even more chaotic than most web sites
under construction.
An easel a few steps back from the entryway bears a sign that says:
To the right of the entrance is an archway of curiously-shaped widgetry.
There is nothing behind it when you look from the side, but seen
straight-on it appears to lead to a cluttered home office. A
hastily-scribbled sign hung at the top of the arch reads:
An album cover has been attached to the wall beside it, possibly with
chewing gum. Taped below it with purple duct tape is a flier that reads
Coffee,
Computers, and Song! Pre-order CDs here! The "pre" has
been crossed out, but it's clear that whoever is shipping the CDs is
having a little trouble keeping up with orders. If you're in a hurry, CD Baby is just down the
hall to the left.
On a chair beside it is a small pile of papers titled Guide for the
Perplexed Wedding Guest, next to a stack of fliers for Consonance.

What's Where
(or rather, where things will be when we're done constructing...)
- The Lobby
- Bulletin Boards and Flier Tables
- The Flier Table
- Announcements. Eventually this will get split up by topic.
- The Hucksters' Room

servers, and links for those that do.

- The Fanzine Room
- There are a lot of good zines on the Web;
maybe there would be more if more editors had net access.
- The Grand Hotel:
Offices,
Guest Rooms and
Suites
- Pointers to the home pages of fen (like me)
and fannish households (like Grand Central
Starport ), and a place for fen with no internet access to park
their carcasses.
- The Docking Bay
- Jumping-off point for other places in Cyberspace, with an accent on
filking,
and resources for
kids and their
parents.
