Jazz lovers have taken to the Internet in a big way, and you can find a page devoted to virtually anything you might want to know about the music--individual musicians, festivals, record labels, touring schedules, local Jazz societies. Jazz Now Interactive (http://www.jazznow.com) was first on the Internet; here are some other sites of note.
