The chemweb mailing list has existed for some time, and it has proved to be a high content/low noise mailing list devoted to various uses of the net by/for chemist. The chemweb mailing list is problably better suited for this discussion, although I am another person that does not mind this topic in the CCL mailing list. I have included subscription info below for the chemweb list. -- chemweb: A list for Chemical Applications of the Internet.
