Even though 60% of Tourbus riders are based in the USA, we respect the fact that Tourbus goes out to people in over 130 countries. For our Spanish friends, we have "TOURBUS en Espanol" which contains over 100 issues of Tourbus, dating back to March 1997. You can access these archived issues (and almost three years of the English version) on the Tourbus website at http://www.tourbus.com/. ==========================[ WIN COOL STUFF! ]========================= Join the Intel Owner's Club (Free) and enter to win cool stuff for your PC.

All of them were created by Tourbus riders, so if you have a special site about your corner of the world, let me know! Canada Grade A - http://www.look-ear.com/canada ----------------------------------------------- Canada Grade A is an online broadcast that uses the popular Real Audio streaming utility. Anchored by Geoff Edwards, each edition of the show exposes listeners to humor and Canadian rock, alternative and other releases. Unofficial Guide to Slovak Politics - http://www.slovensko.com ----------------------------------------------------------------- A nicely done site bringing news and comments about Slovak politics and social life from the point of view of Miroslav Sedivy, a 19 year-old student living in the capital of this small but interesting country. The site is updated daily, and features basic information on Slovakia, a photo gallery, and RealAudio soundclips. There's also a link to an article from the year 1922 - with predictions about life in the year 2000. E-Conflict World Encyclopedia - http://www.emulateme.com/ --------------------------------------------------------- A very interesting site with 1,400 pages of information about the nations of the world. Site author David Driggs hopes the site will help to eradicate conflict by increasing cultural awareness. There really is a goldmine of information here, including National Anthems (in text and MIDI format), Flags, Maps, Weather and statistics about each country. You can try the World Encyclopedia search engine, take the E-Conflict World Quiz and Capital City Quiz to see how good your geography skills are, or just browse around and learn about everything from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe. THE TOURBUS PLUS COMPUTER GIVEAWAY! ----------------------------------- We're happy to announce that the winner of our portable stereo CD player is Kathy Sweet of Phoenix, AZ. But Patrick and I have decided that's not enough. So we're going to give away a COMPLETE COMPUTER SYSTEM worth OVER $1000 to one lucky TOURBUS PLUS reader in December.
