My electronic field guide to "Invasive Plants in Winter" has finally gone
beta, so to speak, over at the efgKeys website. It features invasives from
the New England region, though those of you from other temperate parts of
North America are sure to see some familiar species. To check it out, head
over to the site and choose it from the pull-down menu in Step 1. The
Java-based picture key is the coolest, but the software also serves up the
key in several other flavors, like HTML and PDF. The best part about this
is that all I have to do is set up a spreadsheet and some images, and the
software, developed by the excellent EFG Research Group at UMass Boston,
does all the hard work.

P.S. - The software is currently operating at port 8080...some firewalls
automatically block this, so you might have to fiddle with your system to
access the site.
