In the end, they failed to give a list of 10 web sites. (BBC)

The Cost of Doing Business Extends to Davos
When President Clinton sweeps into a snowy Swiss Alpine village this week, he will be the first sitting president, and thus the biggest star ever, to attend the glittering corporate conference known by the name of its location--Davos. The meeting is so high powered that Clinton is only one of 33 national leaders going up the mountain this year. Also expected for the meetings starting Thursday are prime ministers Ehud Barak of Israel and Tony Blair of Britain, and King Abdullah of Jordan. Attending as well will be 1,020 senior executives from the world's top corporations, including Bill Gates of Microsoft and Steve Case of America Online.
