NCSA Mosaic
NCSA Mosaic, the grandfather of all graphics browsers, started in 1993 at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The browser hasn�t kept up to speed with Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer, but the browser is still worth a whirl.
Mosaic offers a keen feature that even the Netscapes and Microsofts haven�t picked up yet. Mosaic lets you type annotations on Web pages you�ve visited, and the comments appear at the bottom of a page the next time you visit the Web page.
Mosaic�s feature list also includes the following:
- HTML 3.0 support
- Hotlist Manager (like Bookmarks and Favorites)
- Support for imagemaps and inline JPEG graphics
- Newsreader
- Optional day, date, and time information displayed in status bar
- Preference options for customizing the browser
