In whatever way you have discovered
AbsoluteElsewhere.net...welcome.
I want to offer you a guidebook of sorts to Absolute Elsewheres content and features, so that you can easily find your way around the site.
The Home Pages (1 and 2) offer clickable links to every feature on the site. Use the button panel along the right side of Home Page 1 for basic site navigation.
On both the left and right side, you will find clickable graphics that will lead you to special site features.
The center section of both Home Page 1 & 2 offers links of various kinds. This is where you will find the Absolute Elsewhere Stores.
Some of the main attractions at Absolute Elsewhere are:

ORIGINAL ARTICLES
Original Articles on all aspects of John Lennons life by a variety of talented writers serve as a major part of the content on Absolute Elsewhere. New articles will be added on a regular basis.
FEATURES
Features of a more visual nature will be added regularly to the Features section of the site. These features will cover some aspect of Johns life through graphics and photos.
ARCHIVES
I have an abundant collection of Text and Image Archives that will be moved onto this website over the weeks and months ahead. New archives will be announced on the What's New page.
PHOTO ALBUMS
Dozens of theme-based Photo Albums will also be moved onto this site in the weeks and months ahead. These contain many rare and unusual photos of John. New photo albums will be announced on the What's New page.
SPECIAL SECTIONS
Certain features that I have planned for this website are somewhat more interactive in nature and they will be found under the area designated for Special Sections. It may take me some time to fully develop these features, but they are definitely in the works. New special section features will be announced on the What's New page.
OTHER HIGHLIGHTS
There are links to Webcams situated in the locations where John Lennon lived and worked. You can also visit the website of the Liverpool Airport which now bears his name. Join the Absolute Elsewhere John Lennon Forum and sign up for the Mailing List. Don't forget to sign the Guestbook, as well. And feel free to offer your Feedback on any aspect of the site by emailing me. If you should find any dead links within the website, please report these by emailing me (use the Email Webladyjean link on the Home Page).
THE STORES
There will eventually be eight Lennon-related stores on the website. Until further notice, you can visit The Lennon Store for a wide variety of items on John Lennon; The Beatles Store, which focuses on a specially-selected group of books, CDs, videos and DVDs on The Fabs that are currently available; The Mind Games Store which offers hard to find books, CDs and videos that were among Johns favorites (along with other items all related to his personal interests); and The Creaky Bookshelf, which serves as a resource for used, rare and out-of-print Lennon and Beatle books.
The other stores (which will open as soon as possible) are:
The British Invasion Store will bring you hard-to-find musical favorites from the early- to mid-60s, back when everything was fab and gear!
The Pop Culture Store will take you back to 50s and 60s with books that chronicle those exciting and now-nostalgic decades.
All the stores will be updated regularly. I hope you enjoy shopping through these many links to Amazon.com and Powells Books.
Keep in mind that by purchasing items from the shops and stores on Absolute Elsewhere, you will be supporting the continued growth of the website (at no extra cost to you), assuring the future addition of ever-expanding content and features. Your steady patronage will serve to cover the operating costs for the website, so thanks in advance for your support!
FUTURE GOALS OF ABSOLUTE ELSEWHERE
I have big plans for Absolute Elsewhere. The history of Absolute Elsewhere goes back to November 1999, when it was first founded as a Yahoo! Club. It soon outgrew itself in that location, but it has taken me several years to bring this website to fruition.
As a Lennon/Beatles fan since 1964, I have amassed quite a collection of information and memorabilia over the years. I will be delving into this vast array of material when developing original articles and features for the site. I also plan to conduct a series of exclusive interviews with people who knew and worked with John. And several talented writers are planning contributions for the site in the coming weeks. So you can expect the best of Lennon on these pages.
I hope this brief guide to Absolute Elsewhere has been helpful to you, and that you will return to the site again and again. Please feel free to leave feedback about the site. Thanks for coming...and come back again soon!
