Seascout-Ring |
Seascout-Ring is gathering of Sea Scouting and Sea Venturer world wide web sites that have joined together to share their Sea Scouting experiences. By joining the ring, these web sites make it easier for Sea Scouts worldwide to visit other like-minded web sites. This also increases traffic on their web site, so more people will become aware of their program.

The Webring is a totally free service offered to the Internet community. We are a quickly growing collection of homepages from all over the World who are committed to creating a new kind of Web community.
The Webring provides the World Wide Web with a different way to organize web sites. The Webring is a way to group together sites with similar content (or any pages at all, if one so desires) by linking them together in a circle, or ring.
The idea is that once you are at one site in the webring, you can click on a "Next" or "Previous" link to go to adjacent sites in the ring and--if you do it long enough--end up where you started.
This is actually something you can do without the Webring system by simply having each page owner link their site to the next. However, when somebody wants to join the ring, someone has to edit their page to point to the new page and--when the ring gets big enough--it becomes more and more difficult to keep the ring "intact" when pages disappear and servers go down.
The Webring provides a solution to all of these problems, as well as numerous enhancements. When you join a Webring, the HTML code on your homepage never changes. Links point to a special CGI script at webring.org that will send people to the next (or previous) site in the ring. Because the central ring database is located in one location, sites can be added and removed quickly and easily, and because the Webring CGI allows you go continue past sites that are unreachable, you will always be able to continue around the loop.
