Click Here to Refresh Thyself After a gut-wrenching end to 2001 and a trying start to 2002, summer is finally here! Many of us will be taking time out to reassess our lives and careers and, given the dismal stock market, shore up our personal finances. This issue of Best of the Web is devoted to doing just that: "Reinvesting in Yourself." Whether you are seeking a source for fresh innovations, a place to learn about Shakespeare or the Genomics Era, or merely a site to pursue passions like golf or cell phone gaming, you'll find it on the Web -- and in this guide. As always, we've ferreted out the top sites by rating them according to five criteria: Content, Design, Speed, Navigation and Customization. Some 3,500 other BoTW site reviews and links can be found at www.forbesbest.com. One infectious Web passion is Web logs or "blogs" (see our reviews). These personal, often collaborative, Web diaries are democratizing journalism. At a recent technology conference, bloggers with laptops used the hotel's wireless network to report on the speeches and relay questions to the podium from other bloggers around the world. Companies like Macromedia are encouraging managers to use blogs to connect with customers. Despite the rantings and inane musings often found on blogs, we think that any technology that empowers people and fosters self-expression, is definitely Best of the Web. Here are the categories that we are highlighting this issue: •Firm Up Your Intellectual Capital Web Logs Innovation and Ideas Continuing Education Academic Research Book Clubs •Makeover Your Portfolio: Asset Allocation Stock Picking Fund Selection Investing Down Under •Get Your House In Order: Time Management Estate Planning Mortgages •Re-Energize Your Career: Second Careers Volunteering •Become A Connoisseur: Art & Antiques 101 Fine Art Cultural Tours •Pursue Your Passions: Adventure Travel Last Minute Getaways Golf & Tennis Home Decorating Angling Cell Phone Gaming
