Paleoportal.org Now On-line!

["Andy Farke" <andyfarke@hotmail.com>]

I am pleased to announce that The Paleontology Portal (www.paleoportal.org) 
is now up and running. This website brings together links for quality web 
resources related to paleontology (particularly paleontology of the United 
States). All links are reviewed by a panel of professional paleontologists 
and educators, and must conform to standards of content, clarity, and 
ethics. Once accepted, these links are uploaded to the website so that they 
are searchable or browsable by state, taxon, etc. A fossil gallery houses 
images of fossils, and there are also links to information on careers in 
paleo, collections databases, and other topics.

Paleoportal.org relies on links submitted by website users. Because the site 
has only been up for two weeks, our content is still a little sparse. 
Therefore, if you have a chance to point your browser to 
www.paleoportal.org, please take that opportunity to enter your own favorite 
paleontology-related links. You may access this feature by going to the "add 
to site" button at the top of the webpage (or go there directly by 
http://www.paleoportal.org/submissions/main.php).

This project, funded by NSF, is a joint venture between Society of 
Vertebrate Paleontology, the Paleontological Society, University of 
California Museum of Paleontology, and the USGS.

Thank you in advance for your link submissions, and we hope you find this 
site useful in the coming months and years!

Andy Farke,
Editorial Board, The Paleontology Portal
