You see things and you say 'Why?' But I dream thing that never were; and I say, 'Why not?'. - Geroge Bernard Shaw

How soft, how snug, how warm, how comfortable- and how bored you are! - Anton Chekhov

The intent of the "Friends and Partners Catalog" is to provide a complete searchable/browsable resource on all Internet resources dealing with the Newly Independent States and with US (or the "West") exchange and cooperation with the NIS. It is an ambitious effort and one we hope will assist in locating useful resources on the rapidly growing Internet.

Please note that we welcome (indeed, need!) your links and input into this distributed database. If you wish to become a primary contributor to the system, please write us so that we can help you make best use of the database and its various options.

NaukaNet and the Next Network

 

 

The "next generation Internet" is coming and promises a much richer communications media. F&P is working with the National Center for Supercomputing Applications (NCSA) of the University of Illinois and with colleagues at the Kurchatov Institute, Russian Institute for Public Networking, the Joint Supercomputing Center and the Russian Academy of Science - to establish a high speed (155M) Internet service between Russian and U.S. scientific communities. The grant is funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation and the Ministry for Science and Technology of the Russian Federation. Please read more about the NaukaNet project at the NaukaNet WWW site.
