This popular TechShow presentation offers a brief survey of the breadth of web offerings: the weird, the wacky, the odd, even the occasionally useful. The sites below are intended as a sampling -- some for entertainment, some to demonstrate particular technical approaches -- and do not, of course, represent the views of the American Bar Association or its Law Practice Management Section.

Nominations for the 2001 edition of Sixty Sites in Sixty Minutes were helpfully supplied by members of the following electronic discussion groups and organizations: NET-LAWYERS, SOLOSEZ, NETWORK2D, Technolawyer, and LLRX.

The Sixty Sites Hall O Fame sites are listed at: techshow.blogspot.com
