NZ / RIANZ[edit]Bulletin, 12.11.11: All bets are off; those dumbasses at RIANZ have changed their site, so the below URLs all redirect to http://nztop40.co.nz/ (showing only the current Top 40). Maybe someday the thing in the upper-right that resembles a drop-down list of charts will actually work. Bloody idiots. News flash. 19.12.11: Thanks to Harout72, there may be salvation: http://rianz.org.nz/rianz/oldchart.asp gets us to the old charts, it appears. Will research...

I am (still) using this page as a scratchpad of those links I frequently use and spend way too much time looking up. While I'm adding and removing such links, it seems like a good opportunity for me to play with formatting capabilities. So I offer my apologies if my User page is of less than great use to its visitors; I'm rather selfishly using it for my own evil purposes.
