How do we pronounce the-vu? We say the view, or the vee yew, but if you want to call it the voo, go ahead. As long as you're talking about us, we're happy.

There are many e-zines (electronic www based magazines) on the web today, and they range in quality from awful to excellent. At the-vu, we want to be able to bring you something to read that you won't find in the mainstream.

Like the web itself, we change frequently. This means you can surf to the-vu regularly and read the new material. We welcome feedback and submissions at the barak @ the- vu .com (Remove the spaces from the email address. We are fighting Spambots by writing it this way).

We have writers from the United States, India, England, Malaysia, Canada, Spain, Vietnam, Scotland, Norway and elsewhere. So far they're all from Earth and they all write in English. Spelling is generally adjusted to that of American English, but otherwise British and Canadian English is preserved intact.

Welcome, and enjoy the-vu.

Jeffrey the Barak,
Publisher.
