chance to organize them logically. -Editor

Ska Web Rings
-------------

   An innovative concept in web-to-web linkage is the "web ring",
wherein a number of web sites link one to the next, in a big
daisy-chained ring.  There are several ska web rings, including:

*The Official IRC #Ska Webring*
     http://www.geocities.com/Eureka/7372/

*Official RudeBoy Ska Ring*
     http://members.tripod.com/~rudeska/webring.html

*Punk and Ska Ring*
     http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/2743/

*Skankin' SKA-Ring*
     http://www.ballcom.com/~yakuza/punkska/webring/index.htm

*The Skinhead Webring*
     http://www.webring.org/cgi-bin/webring?ring=skinhead&id=1;random

Internet Relay Chat (IRC)
-------------------------

   There is an IRC channel called `#ska', on The Undernet and on Efnet,
for those interested in real-time chat.

   Hey, the IRC channel has a WWW page or two!  Include bios of `#ska'
locals and more.

   For Efnet: http://www.princeton.edu/~tompilla/ircska.html

   For The Undernet: http://edbo.com/boudicca/irc.html

Mailing Lists
-------------

   Subject: 2.9: How do I get a ska email-based mailing list?  What are
other ska resources on the Internet?

   (Some of this material is a wee bit dated.  I will try to get to
this ASAP. -Editor)

   There are a few options.
