U.N. Wire launches improvements
-------------------------------
 
 
Dear AFRO-NETS subscribers:
 
We are very pleased to announce significant improvements in the con-
tent and look of U.N. Wire ­ unveiled today. We would very much like 
to enlist your help in spreading the word about these changes and 
about the usefulness of our news service.
 
Here is a quick summary of the improvements we have initiated: The 
daily e-mail alert has now become a fully developed newsletter. It 
includes quick summaries of the day's top stories, and links to other 
stories in the daily report housed at http://www.unwire.org. So now 
it is suitable for printing out for reading at a later time ­ or for 
forwarding to colleagues who may be interested in its content. U.N. 
Wire's home page, http://www.unwire.org, has been reformatted to im-
prove typography, display and ease of use. We've modelled it on the 
web pages of other prominent media organizations such as the BBC and 
The New York Times. It's easier now to e-mail individual stories to 
interested colleagues. We are delighted to announce that Barbara 
Crossette will now be writing her U.N. Notebook column every week. As 
many of you know, Barbara is a deeply experienced foreign correspon-
dent who served as The New York Times U.N. bureau chief for seven 
years. 
 
More improvements will be coming throughout the summer. People can 
sign up for our free news service at http://www.unwire.org/subscribe.
 
Thank you and best regards,
 
Timothy B. Clark
