After being much wow'd at NJ Code camp on Saturday by web parts and authentication models, and continuing to drool over start.com, I've resolved to sharpen my knowledge on these through revamping my site.

hence a bookmark to myself on atlas: http://www.nikhilk.net/Entry.aspx?id=94

British Library

Amazing - the British Library has put some books on line (not incedible alone), including a notebook by Da Vinci (cool content).

The book viewer shows you the book itself (you actually "flip" the pages), and there is even a "maginfying glass" available. (enrich the user experience)

Lastly the page is enriched further with optional audio and text. (extend and enrich the content).

What a great site.
