I am writing on behalf of Discovery Communications, Inc., parent company
of Discovery Channel and The Learning Channel. In the summer of 1995,
Discovery launched Discovery Channel Online, a World Wide Web site that
extends the real world entertainment of its cable programming to
cyberspace.
We actively seek links to high-quality sites like yours that feature
content related to subjects on our site. We would like to link to your
site through History Connections--related to James Burke's program
"Connections." As part of History Connections, we have created a contest
called "Webweaving" in which we provide clues for users to make the
"connection."
Your page contains material relevant to the connection, and we plan to
link to your site throughout April. The contest will then be archived
for a year.
The page we are linking to is located at:
http://www.unicorn.com//lib/law.html
There is the potential for hundreds of users to attempt to access your
site through these links. Please let us know at your soonest convenience
whether this extra traffic will present any technical problems for your
server.
If we do not hear from you, we will continue to point Discovery users to
your site.
Also, should the URL for this page change, would you please contact Jude
Doherty at jdoherty@discovery.com?
If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. We look
forward to hearing from you.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Cleary
Discovery Channel Online Consultant
