Re: Good Websites and Resources

I keep up a list of vendors and FIRST manuals, etc. on my blog. (See my signature file.) I started this very simple page for a few reasons:
1) When I help out another team (typically a new or rookie team), I just give them the blog address. Beats typing out a massive wall of text email every time I want to give someone the info.
2) Keeps me from having to keep up my favorites on my multiple computers. I just keep up the blog, and I bring it up when I need a document.

It is modest, simple, and much easier for me to maintain than a full blown website. I make no pretenses that it is an all inclusive list; I am sure that it is only the tip of the iceberg.

FIRST is not rocket science. But it is like drinking from a fire hose.
