Great stuff Andy as usual, but as you will see from your posting here you have a typo on the first page and one of your links doesn't work - History study stop - maybe you could replace it with comptonhistory!. I really like the glossary of key terms and a good link to John D's VAK revision techniques - why have you kept ActiveHistory on there if it's subscription? Keep up the good work - my boys are using your site to revise - saves me having to do the hard work!

Thanks for the feedback... much appreciated . I'll correct the spelling and consider your suggested link

Are you really suggesting that I should remove the link to our Comenius colleague's website?

I have no doubt that it is an excellent website, and worthy of a link, but I can't comment cos I've never used it since it went pay per view

Actually I didn't use it much even before it went "pay per view" as it was clearly pitched at the level of a highly selective intake.

I think the boy Tarr deserves a bit of encouragement however. He has some excellent ideas and doesn't seem to charge that much for his wares.

There comes a point in the life of any website where you either start charging or you carrying advertisements to pay your costs. I disagreed with Russel when he decided to take the route he chose - a disagreement he for some reason decided to take very personally... I do however wish him well with his site.
