    THE INTERNET MOVIE DATABASE
    Internet Prospector, June '95
    Streisand, Speilberg, and Redford. What do they all have in common? Private foundations. So if you're going after celebrity money then check out the Internet Movie Database (IMD). It may save some time if agents and publicists are slow responding to your requests for a celebrity's professional credits. According to the IMD's
    FAQ:

         The Internet Movie Database is an international volunteer effort co ordinated via
         the USENET newsgroup rec.arts.movies. The objective of the database is to provide
         useful and up to date movie information *freely* available on-line, across as many
         systems as possible. It currently covers over 41,000 movies with over 525,000 filmography
         entries and is expanding continuously.

    THE ULTIMATE BAND LIST
    Internet Prospector, April '98
    Okay, I kept this site to myself for years. Now I am ready to share. Need to woo a donor music-lover? Click on Clubs and Concerts to scope out your favorite gig, and rock that donor all night long.  Enter keywords  in the dialog box or search alphabetically for an artist (from ABBA to YMO, Yellow Music Orchestra).  What do you get?  Besides links to Web pages, you'll find UBL's All Music Guide which has basic artist info (links to All Movie Guide when appropriate), biography, discography, related artists, performance years and genre, all hot linked. You'll find links to the ALl Movie Guide withfilmography, related artists, directors, years active and more. Again, there will be hot links to movie synopsis, actors, and so on.

    Don't forget to try other buttons on the home page.  Click on Radio Stations, Charts, Magazines, Online Events, Record Stores and Labels.  For everything musical with a link on the Internet, click on Musical Resources. You'll link to an index by musical instrument, funk, jazz, opera -- well, the list seems endless.

    If rock is your interest, UBL is a first stop. If you can't find the URL for ASCAP or want the opera scheduler, UBL's musical resource section is the place to go.
