The title of today's site is not one that is related to the animal world. Nor is it about a city or town that is named after an animal. No, it is a very computer oriented site, one that has a little bit of something for everyone.
It is called the Platypus Community, and... continue reading...

I have been reviewing sites in the past that were oriented towards younger visitors to cyberspace. Today I have one that the young set can share with their grandparents.

One of the greatest inventors of all time has his own web page. What is so unusual about that, you might ask?
