Sean,


I'm afraid I can't help you with print, but I can point you to a few online

resources.


First off, I moderate the Online Europe discussion list, which is a contact

point for European Internet developers and entrepreneurs. The people

participating in OE work in a variety of fields that are presently being

impacted by the net, including telecom, finance, IT, journalism and

government. As the moderator, I work to keep the quality high and the

volume reasonable, and as Sam will appreciate this is a tricky balance. In

the last few days the list broken out in a spirited discussion of US

investments in the European net, a topic which has generated traffic on

UKNM as well.

Online Europe also works closely with two related services, Europemedia and

Websoup:


Europemedia <http://www.europemedia.com> is a weekly news service covering

the European net from a country by country perspective. News is submitted

by volunteer country editors, and editored for clarity by the Europemedia

organizers. The full stories available on the web, and summarized in a

weekly email newsletter.


European Websoup <http://www.dad.be/websoup> is a thrice weekly email

digest of European Internet news, as reported in the press. At that URL,

you'll also find the NetWatch cheat sheet, a one page summary of European

Internet statistics, presented in PDF format.

I'm a partner in a Budapest-based web development company, and I'd be happy

to compare notes with you about the Hungarian and Eastern European Internet

markets. I'd also be glad to answer any further questions about the

resources I've mentioned.
