ABOUT JUNCTION
What Is Silicon Junction?
Silicon Junction is the primary on-line information
application for SGI employees. It contains a wealth of news and
information tailored to the needs of the world-wide SGI community.
Silicon Junction is accessed through the Netscpae web browser or
through Mosaic.
Silicon Junction is a global information system available to all
SGI employees and contractors, regardless of where they're located.
All of SGI's work force can be brought closer together through the
power and speed of the Internet. This helps us know what's going on
in the engineering group across the hall or the sales team across the
ocean.
Silicon Junction is a corporate newspaper. It delivers news about
SGI events and products much faster than printed media. Whether it's
a visit from Michael Jackson or Steven Speilberg, or the introduction
of the fastest graphics system in the world, chances are you'll read
about it first in Silicon Junction.
Silicon Junction is a gateway to the World Wide Web. It contains
hyperlinks (sections of text on a web page that envoke other web
pages when clicked on) that point to some of the most interesting
sites on the Internet. You can access today's news in the Wall St.
Journal or see what classes are offered by the Berkeley Physics
Depertment.
Silicon Junction is a productivity tool. You can use it to find
the phone numbers of employees at remote locations or request a new
light for your office.
Silicon Junction is not available to the outside world or to
casual surfers on the Internet. A special network router called the
"firewall" prevents people who aren't part of the SGI network from
viewing web pages on Silicon Junction. SGI uses a separate web system
called Silicon Surf to promote our products and culture to the rest
of the Internet.
Publication Guidelines
Submitting Headlines
Requests to post headlines on the Junction home page should be
sent to (Webmaster Name). We reserve the right to select which
headlines actually get posted and to determine how long they stay

Please give us as much lead time as possible (2 - 3 days).
Documents in any format other than HTML will require an additional
day to be converted.
All documents should have a revision date and contact person
listed at the bottom of each page. There should be a working email
address using the "mailto:" HREF next to the name of the contact
person.
Adding New Home Pages
Requests to add new Division or Field Home Pages to either the
Internal SGI Sites or the External Web Sites sections should be sent
to (Webmaster Name). We request that Home Ppages linked to from
Silicon Junction have a "Return To Junction" button at the bottom of
the page.
New web sites that may be of interest to the general SGI community
may be highlighted on the Junction Home Page for 2 or 3 days in order
to bring this site to the attention of those people who might benefit
from it.
Requests concerning personal Home Pages should be sent to the
webmaster of the Reality system, (Webmaster Name).
Silicon Junction Mission Statement
Our goal is to make Silicon Junction the best corporte web
system on the planet. We will use emerging web-based
technology to do the following:
- Increase the productivity and knowledge base of all SGI
employees.
- Provide as much usefull job-related information as possible to
all SGI employees, regqrdless of their location.
- Facilitate the training and growth of new SGI employees.
- Provide guidelines for the coordination and structure of other
internal web servers.
