1. Editorial: From the Publisher

=>A Zero-Cost, Easy Web Site Solution

No arguments, you need a Web site.

If you've been quibbling about the time, expense and experience it takes to set one up, I've found a no-cost, quick solution.

Check out OnlineHomeBase: http://www.onlinehomebase.com/

OnlineHomeBase is an online organizer and notepad. The wonderful thing about this service is that you don't have to click your way through dozens of mysterious menus and fill out endless fields.

Its pages are called sheets, and that's just what they are --- blank Web pages with a few buttons along the top.

When you create a new sheet, you decide the format: blank page, calendar, columns or column and calendar. Then you just start typing, or paste in information you've found on the Web, or
that's stored on your computer.

Once you've got the info in your password-protected OnlineHomeBase account, you can access it from any computer anywhere and anytime.

You can also share a sheet with other people, by selecting the "Share" option, so that the page gets a unique address outside your protected account.

Since a sheet on OnlineHomeBase can have 100,000 characters of text, or roughly 20,000 words, you've got sufficient space to use it as an online portfolio or resume.
