| Browsers:
Netscape.......original and still
best? Hmmmm, that could all depend on.......
Internet Explorer.......Microsoft
starting to call the shots in html-land?
Apple's Cyberdog......just to
keep the faith, you got to throw the ol' dog a bone.
Mosiac........where did they go?
AOL.....had to throw it in 'cause
that's what 25% of wired population use (it just a crappy old version of
Internet Explorer squeezed in a convenient package) |
HTML Editors:
PageMill.......the first program
to really get the web sites rolling, great product, good price from Adobe.
Probably the simplest way to do frames.
Claris Homepage.......Apple's
home grown answer to PageMill, great package makes text editing and tables
a breeze
Frontpage......Microsofts
answers to the dominant Mac software above, got good ratings in Internet
World Magazine
HotMetLPro........for the purists
who love text, easier than it looks once you get going. |
| Search Engines:
Hot Bot.......from UC Berkeley,
now run by Wired this one is hot (and I like the brash colors)
Alta Vista.......now the biggie,
DEC try to convince us they are the best
Yahoo......catchy title, nicely
marketed now they are public, but they gotta get automated
Infoseek........'cause anything
to do with Rupert Murdoch had better be watched carefully
Excite.....well, does not get me
too excited - but it's in my bookmarks. |
Internet News:
Wired.......the only magazine worth
buying just because of the ad's! Great articles, "this is not just
cutting edge....this is bleeding edge"
Deja News.......looking dialogue
on any topic you can think of - the ultimate news group service.
Techwire New.....really
up to date news of what's happening in the tech world.
C|Net...........the first people
to make really good use of the "|" symbol. All your shareware
here comrades. |
