Websurfing With Tom- Our picks of the web

Just like everyone else in the world, we at Tom Dwyer Automotive spend way too much time surfing the Internet.  To turn what could be wasted time into productive effort, we decided to start this new section of the newsletter devoted to sharing our websurfing results with you.  We’ll be posting links to stories, pictures, and videos on a variety of subjects that spark our interest from cutting-edge automotive technology to fuzzy kitten videos and everything in between.  (Send us links to things you like, and we’ll post those too.)  You’ll see descriptions of some of these links, but others are surprises.  We can’t guarantee that everything will be interesting to you, but we can guarantee that it was all interesting to us, and that we looked at each link personally and none of them were pornographic at the time of posting.
