>The Institute has launched a new web site www.physics.org - a simple one stop
>shop for any question on physics!
>
>The site has been set up because school students, teachers and
>anyone else with
>an interest in physics commonly complain that "there is too much physics
>information on the web".
>
>www.physics.org uses a powerful natural language programme to give an accurate
>and relevant answer to your question using a database of refereed resources
>that are recommended by the Institute. Providing more information for the
>search such as your name and your knowledge of physics, focuses the answers to
>your level.
>
>Please visit www.physics.org and help us test the site and the database of
>resources.
>
>I look forward to receiving your comments.
