This issue of Cool/Great Sites features five more awesome web sites I recently came across on one of my many surfing excursions. Of course, you will find extensive descriptions of each site featured in this article, along with a complete category listing for each web site.

My first pick is called Cool Graphics on the Web - Backgrounds, Icons, GIFs, Clip Art, Graphics: The Best Graphics Sites on the Web (over 2,000,000 hits). This is a links site, but it is a very impressive one. Its one page design and categorization makes it very easy to navigate, and it loads fairly quickly. Approximately 95% of the links offer free graphics, and the remainder feature worthwhile inexpensive commercial sites. The first four links will direct you to Gini and her daughter's own graphics creations. The other 90+ links are categorized as follows: Small Sites, Icons, Clip Art and Animations, Giant Mega Sites, Free Downloads and Resources, Animated Gif Collections, Fonts for Fun, Graphics for Kids, Fantasy Art, Cool Misc Graphics, Cultural Diversity Graphics, Textures and Backgrounds, Seasonal Graphics, Public Domain Graphics, Graphics Utilities and Programs, HTML Help and Web Page Construction, Victorian Graphics, Other Great Hotlists, Gini's Special Links - Poetry, Midis and Screen Savers. These are working links to great graphics sites that are updated regularly.

My second hot pick is called Puzz.com - Analogies, IQ Tests, Trivia, Puzzles and Contests - providing both entertainment and educational stimulation. Stay in this web site too long, and your brain is likely to get tired! There's a super selection to choose from here: gameshows, brain teasers, sweepstakes and contests, vocabulary quizzes, opus test, free catalogs, brain games, trivia blitz, software, puzzle books, free puzzle newsletter, riddles, bingo, cube games, links to other games, IQ societies, mensa, intelligent humor page and much more. You'll also find links to several other similar web sites with more great brain teasers! Make sure you bookmark this one for when you need an intellectual jolt!

My next hot pick is called My Virtual Reference Desk (MVRD). This extensive web site has had almost 3.5 million visitors and contains almost 17,000 links. MVRD is updated once a week, and comes complete with a search engine. Categories: Headlines, Site of the Week, News, Magazines, Papers, Features, Sports, Search Engines, Business, Streaming Media, Atomic Clock, Best of the Net, Calculator, Classifieds, Comics, Crosswords, Daily Almanac, Devices on the Net, Dictionaries, Do-it-Yourself, Download Links, Editorials, Entertainment, Facts Page, Fast Facts 1998,
