See you in the SEC Lounge

I'm quite excited to announce that the Search Engine College Lounge is now open.

The Lounge is designed as a meeting place for SEC students, graduates and guests, as well as a library of everything search engine related, including:

* news
* articles
* links
* forums
* blogs & newsfeeds
* newsletters
* merchandise
* tools
* software
* FAQs
* worldwide search engine lists
* events
* competitions
* books
* training

Lounge membership is free and when you become a member, you get access to the following additional resources:

* employment forum
* industry discounts
* newsfeeds
* member articles
* glossaries
* lists of SEO/SEM firms
* research & statistics
* patents
* ability to submit news, articles & links

We are in soft-launch mode so some areas are still being developed, but new content is being added on a daily basis and you can suggest links, news items or submit articles for inclusion. We want to make The Lounge an invaluable search engine resource and one of your most visited bookmarks so please use the Contact Us link to let us know what you like, what you don't like and make suggestions for ways we can improve things.

We hope you enjoy your new space and make it your own by becoming involved. See you there!
