[sw-l] New Website

[Bill Reese]

Sandy,

I took a look at the website and while testing the links, I noticed a
couple of dictionary anomalies on the British SignPuddle site.  The
gloss "lightening" should be "lightning", unless the British spell it
different than Americans.   Also, "Work" is capitalized.
The website itself shows a good foundation.  It's clean and easy to
navigate.  My only suggestion is to have the links to other sites open a
new window.  I would rather stay at a main page with the links and
examine the links separately than navigate away from the main page when
clicking on a link.  Just a personal preference.

I'm on an XP PRO machine, using Netscape 7.1 as my browser and it worked
fine.

Bill
