Have you built your website yet?

All the links in these articles were checked and revised if necessary July 2004.

The Internet is not just for passive observers. With no expense and little time or trouble, you can be the proud proprietor of your own little spot in cyberspace. These articles, from Rovin' and Ravin', an ongoing series of articles brought to you by the first community freenet in Georgia, can serve as an introductory textbook on what you need, where you can find it (free!), and how to use it to get your own website online. Start with this three-part series:

"Who Wants to Be a Web-master?"

Find free web space and even register a domain name.

"Who Still Wants to Be a Web-master?"

Find the tools you need to create a web page and to get it to your home on the Internet.

"Web-masters (and Mistresses) of the Universe"

Add pictures, sounds, e-mail, guest books, and other free features to your site.

Then, you are ready to fine-tune your site:

"Top Level Domains, Low Level Schemes"

Understand Internet addresses.

"Giving Your Computer Eyes"

Use your scanner and digital camera.

"Pictures on a Web Page"
