Under MAJOR reconstruction! (Updated Saturday, August 09, 2003 .)

*You are listening to OPB, Oregon Public Radio*

I don't live in Portland and never have, but I love reading about the city and visiting from time to time.  I feel like I know as much as a person can know about a place without actually living there. 

I figured I'd share some of the info I've stumbled across.  Portland is an interesting town!  I recommend joining newtoportland@yahoo.com.  It's a great group of people who want to move to Portland, are in the process of moving, or are new to Portland.  Lots of friendly, helpful people!

First, the "multi" links... sites for visitors and chambers of commerce with links for lots of dining, entertainment, etc.
