'Tis the season...

For many of us, this is the season for giving - including giving business gifts, and giving to charity. The Internet offers a number of ways to buy gifts for business and personal use, as well as ways to become involved in charitable giving. This month's ResearchNOTES focuses on a few good sites for the holiday season...

Having trouble selecting just the right gift? Take a look at Kevin Kelly's Cool Tools at http://kk.org/cooltools/. You can search for reviews of books, gadgets, software, hardware, and more.

While all of the major search engines have a shopping component, Google Checkout is offering $50 discount coupons and free shipping through selected stores. Find out which ones at http://tinyurl.com/yug4g2.

Finally, when you're thinking about donating time or money to a worthwhile cause, visit 20+ Charity & Fund Raising Tools at http://tinyurl.com/ywfzep. They offer a list of Web sites with information about specific charities. Fund raisers will find useful sites here as well.

Best wishes for your holidays - Marcy
