Anne,

Fantastic to hear that you are doing an article on the Internet for Boys 
Life.  Any help that I can give you I will be happy to do.  

If you have a Web browser the best two places to start your journey on 
the internet are:

MACSCOUTER at http://www.macscouter.com/   and

U.S. SCOUTING at http://www.HiWAAY.net/hyper/Scouts/

The MACSCOUTER site has two very significant guides to the internet that 
you can quickly jump to from the home page.  One is Gary Hendra's Guide 
to Internet Scouting and the other is my own Commissioner's Workshop.  
Both provide jump points to ftp sites and web pages.  In addition they 
catalog different internet Scouting resource areas and how to get there. 
In addition you will find tall tales, songs, great ideas,and much, much 
more.  

U.S. SCOUTING also has links to other internet sites and a venerable 
encyclopedia of information.  You can spend literally a day just reading 
and looking at the information that is available there. 

Just for fun I am pasting into this e-mail a list of Scouting web sites, 
which you will want to see as you write:

I would strongly encourage you to have a box or special emphasis 
highlight in your article with Web URLs for the Scouts to use.  I would 
predict this would generate good feedback to BL and who knows, you may 
have to do followups.  :-)

Best of luck in your endeavor.
