Vote For News Online With Digg

The news industry is moving into some radical new territory. This site (http://www.digg.com) takes things to another level. Digg.com is a technology website that is helping transform the way people consume news online and has just released a new version designed to widen its appeal. I read a newspaper every morning; I enjoy reading the columnists and the editorial, I love absorbing the news available these days. Now though, 20 minutes later I can visit Digg.com and read what hundreds of other people believe to be the most interesting stories around the world in real time. Worth a visit !

Wikipedia Encyclopedia

This website http://www.wikipedia.org/ is quite simply one of the greatest resources to all who remember the ‘big old’ encyclopedia Britannica. That is it… an online encyclopedia… but what a site… millions and millions of articles on nearly everything, and it is constantly growing… and best of all it does not take up a bookcase of space !
Note: Since early 2006, I also have had great pleasure in being involved with editing / adding content.

Internet Explorer 7 (Beta 3)

Microsoft has just release Beta 3 of the new Internet Explorer 7. Having used Explorer 7 from Beta 1, I have to say it seems to work well. It is quick, fast, robust and stable, and the two new beta versions have really improved it (even some of beta 1’s CSS glitches).

Those new to IE 7, take a visit to Microsoft IE 7 and look at the features available. Not only a new look/design but tabs, better printing, RSS feeds and better security… but remember this is still in Beta mode… that is test mode and is not advised for use on mission critical machines. Please note if you install IE 7, it overwrites IE 6.
