HBW alive

Hi,

Does someone has visited the site "hbw alive"? I think there are something wrong, because I´m not getting to access no menu...

José

Looks like the site is not "live" yet, but will be this winter. Thanks for bringing it to attention though.

I think the launch of HBW alive will be not before 2013. Maybe together with the new HBW volume.

Thanks Melanie, very interesting indeed.
I'll need to know what I really get, however. Like, once a volume is paid for, I have unlimited access. But how about this new feature; do I have to pay every year again, for example?

Lynx Edicions will be at the Ornithological Congress in Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain, from 6th to 7th December and they will introduce the forthcoming HBW books and projects.

The 2011 promotional leaflet for the forthcoming Illustrated Checklist showed the maps arranged in a vertical column on the left margin of each plate. But from the photograph of Lynx's congress exhibit, the layout seems to have been redesigned, with individual maps now adjacent to the species concerned - a bit messy, but probably easier to use.

I am still not convinced that there will be anything worth paying for?
