After I noticed that PANArt closed their website I began to search systematically for information on the Hang in the internet in autumn 2006. When www.hangblog.org started in November 2006 “The Hang Internet Index” became one of the first contributions at this website and was updated continuously since then.

In the beginning its aim was to document everything that could be found about the Hang on the Internet. Five years later this isn’t an useful approach any longer. Therefor the internet directory was restructured and relaunched as a part of the Hang Library.
