· Andersen's 2001 report on Internet users and web site design The best part of this site is the Anderson Survey Archive which contains a file of Anderson sponsored web user research. Even though the reports are at best thinly disguised marketing tools for Anderson, the data is focused and relevant. The links in this site are sometimes a bit dicey. You want to end up in the "Ebusiness Resources" section. The most recent survey is posted on the "Resources" homepage. The site itself is somewhat threadbare but data is unique and focused on primary business issues. www.arthurandersen.com

· CIO Magazine's Cyber Behavior Research Center on human behavior and the web A clean, highly commercial site with some interesting information culled from CIO and other leading magazines and web sites. Most information is in the form of topic articles. Some interesting studies and related analysis also posted. Like most magazine-based sites data is a bit out of date but still relevant. Actually the most interesting data on this site is not in the usability (Cyber Behavior) section but in other business sections. Poke around, there is some great general business information in this site. www.cio.com/research/behavior/index.html

· Human-Computer Interaction Bibliography If anyone can rightfully lay claim to making fundamental contributions to usability information on the web it is Gary Perlman. He has been a tireless, if sometimes cranky, advocate of human computer interaction research data on the web. In our opinion if you have only one site to bookmark, this is the one. Broad, deep and directly presented information. www.hcibib.org
