Internet Tips
Snobs may pooh-pooh the personal Web site as an egocentric vanity. But the World Wide Web wasn't invented just for people who are legends in their own minds. You can make a useful and interesting Web site filled with stories that may not be available elsewhere--information that perhaps only you possess. Remember those photos you took during your trip to Peru in the seventies? Suspect you're the world's greatest expert on Victorian coal scuttles? Offer the world what you know through the Web, and invite like-minded hopper-heads to add their say.
Whatever force drives you to the Web, you can get your manifesto--up to 12 megabytes' worth--online in minutes using America Online's free Hometown Web server at hometown.aol.com. Current AOL and CompuServe subscribers, AOL Instant Messenger and Netscape Instant Messenger users, and registered Netscape.com Web site users are ready to go--all you need to get started are a screen name and a password. If you don't have an AOL screen name, you can get one by downloading and installing the free AOL Instant Messenger program (at www.aim.com or find.pcworld.com/26201), or by creating a Netscape.com account for yourself at my.netscape.com.
