Fourth Issue of Buzznet Now Online
```
Date: Mon, 7 Aug 1995 19:01:06 -0700
From: Marc Brown
The fourth issue of BUZZNET is now up on the Internet at http://www.hooked.net/buzznet.
In this issue of BUZZNET, readers can explore San Francisco's burgeoning ambient music scene with Colin Berry, a contributor to Wired and author of the recently published 'A Pocket Tour of Music on the Internet." They can also get up close and personal with the Japanese band Pizzicato Five and their Los Angeles worshippers, and get the scoop on SFO2, an annual showcase of San Francisco's best unsigned bands.
BUZZNET also covers fiction, visual arts and sports with the same cutting-edge sensibility. Up-and-coming writers survey the best in underground comics, and a BUZZNET sports writer sits on the bench with infamous Sportschannel/Westwood One talk show host Scott Ferrall.
Starting soon, BUZZNET will list its readers homepages in THE HIVE. If you have a homepage, please email the URL to info@buzznet.com or use the handy dandy form which can be accessed from the cover page: http://www.hooked.net/buzznet

BUZZNET was started in August, 1994, by San Francisco twenty-somethings Anthony Batt, Marc Brown, Alistair Jeffs and Mike Levin. "We started BUZZNET because there were no magazines on the Web we wanted to read," Brown says. "So we built our own."
The first issue of BUZZNET went up on the World Wide Web in January, 1995, mainly to document San Francisco's third annual Noise Pop Festival. "We printed pictures of the festival and put them on-line the day after they were taken so people all over the world could see them," Jeffs says. "Since then, that's been done by the Macintosh Music Festival, but they had a few more dollars behind them."

If you've missed past issues of BUZZNET, don't worry. The fourth issue offers access to back issues. BUZZNET can be found by setting a World Wide Web browser such as Netscape to http://www.hooked.net/buzznet/. For best results, BUZZNET should be viewed with Netscape 1.1+, but the site offers a "text-only" index as well as its "Full Graphic Assault."
