Le cours d'instruction de Web de la Frontier 5 a été traduit en français. Ayons l'amusement!

Fast Track: Frontier-based HTTP Client.

"Mail Starting 2/13/98".

Here's a project we should do when Netscape releases the source. Let's add code to the browser to call, thru COM or AEs, to another process running on the same machine.

This is the key to building beautiful DHTML interfaces for Frontier. It would be cross-platform and totally up to the person building the app. People have been asking for this for years. Now we may be close to delivery.

Here's a discussion. If you're interested in this kind of stuff, lurk on the discussion on the Frontier-central list.

A writer from Microsoft says "IE can do this today. In fact IE 3 could do this." True, but Netscape can't. We're deliberately spreading out, hoping that when we move, Netscape moves with us. We're aren't anti-Microsoft, this is just what makes business sense for us.

Macrobyte: Prepress Autotools 1.0. Batch processes Quark XPress files, producing Postscript, and much more. A great publishing system, running in Frontier. Free 30-day trial.

I check my horoscope every Friday the 13th. Here's what it says today: "Dissension in the ranks. Instead of hushing things up, get colleagues to air grievances. They may discover their own solution." Interesting!

Read this before you propose: Marriage means less sex.

The next Amazon? American Science & Surplus. It's funny!

One of their hottest products: Mine Barricade Tape.

Wired: Bring on the Frankenbrowsers.

Do you speak Latin? What does this mean? Apertam in mentem inrepit sapientia. From Will Cate: "Not a literal translation, but essentially, 'Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.'"

Trying again: "A Money Idea for Apple".

Break a leg! It's Friday the 13th. Have fun anyway!
