Some unrelated links for your enjoyment:
Archigram Archive Project
A website launching today that "makes the work of the seminal architectural group Archigram available free online for public viewing and academic study. The project was run by EXP, an architectural research group at the University of Westminster."

Let's not talk about architecture
A competition organized by mAAN (Modern Architecture Asian Network) that asks, "Can you reclaim the city for those who own it?"

Including two new architecture travel guides:

Architravel
"The fundamental purpose of the website is to gather information and experiences from the past travels thus creating an electronic Architectural City Guide. Through texts, pictures and maps, the most significant architectural buildings will be described, and there will be recommended 'architectural journeys'." (added to sidebar under architectural links::guides)

World Architecture Map (WAM)
"WAM seeks to be the most comprehensive database for architectural information on the web, and through connections with well known websites already in use, the site will serve as a locus among all other resources on the web." (added to sidebar under architectural links::guides)
