This month's question, "Do you think Rodek should regain his memories of his life as Kurn?" The poll will run from today to the end of October.
September 24, 2003 - While checking the counter stats, as I often do, I found that if ya go to Amazon and type in "IKS Gorkon" in the product search, a link to this site is the third one on the first page and a link to the IKS Gorkon eGroup @ Yahoo is on the second page of options. Pretty cool, huh?
September 23, 2003 - The banner link for The Voyager Collective -Unique Character & Episode Wallpapers has been moved from links' page to the entry page for the site. I got an email today from Marlene, the "captain" of the site, letting me know that she has added the button for this site, the Deep Space Nine Avatar Website, and the Deep Space Nine Avatar eGroup @ Yahoo. - The Warp 9 Search Engine has already added the link for this site. The search box is still on the links' page, and the banner from the search box has been added to the entry page.

I also sent a polite email to that site's webmaster to see if there's a particular banner or button that should be used instead of just a text banner.

So, Star Trek: The Brave and the Bold is now listed in their directory. - a banner link for Brent Spiner: Official Wannabe has been added to the links' page.

DeCandido. - I've updated the link for the Sci Fi Pulse at the links' page. - did ya miss what was going on when this site first launched in August?
