You can still see our launch effort here. The Gl@zine has also grown in terms of the number of editorial items we feature, which now averages 48 new articles per week. The Gl@zine website currently comprises some 10,819 individual files, which are interconnected with an amazing 50,852 hyperlinks, plus an additional 15,093 links to external websites.
