BEST-START Page V1.0 By E. Daniel Bors Jr. -
This is a powerful start-page/home-page/
search-page that installs on your own
computer for use with Netscape Navigator3/4
and Microsoft Internet Explorer3. The page
is colorful, highly graphic, and extremely
easy to use. Upon loading, it provides a
greeting, an amusing Message of the Moment,
a time check from the USNO atomic clock, and
a news ticker with headlines from 6 to 10
major internet news services. A single
click on any headline takes you to the
complete news story, and links to four
additional news sites are included. The
Best-Start Page also has 15 carefully-
selected links to popular, useful and
interesting sites featuring sports, TV,
entertainment, finance, health, reference,
computer news and software, government
resources, humor, and commentary, as well as
a flashing red button that links you to one
of 60 random sites. The page also provides
Direct Access to: current weather conditions
and forecasts for any U.S. locale from NOAA;
12 of the most popular general-purpose search
engines; 12 specialty search engines (with
home page links); 29 links to Name, Address,
Zip, Phone, & E-mail Directories plus Online
Maps; dozens of links to small games,
puzzles and other mind-candy; and, finally,
key-word searches at Earth's Biggest
Bookstore. This compact and easy to install
start-page is a "must-have" for new and
experienced web surfers alike. Shareware.
