Most vanity websites have some list of links the creators think are cool. We're no different. We scoffed at that procedure, then we realized: maybe folks know of some neat places and useful noncommercial programs? With that in mind, we encourage everyone to laugh at anyone who has put a link to Yahoo! on their page (like anyone doesn't know who they are and how to get there?) and snicker at the adult sites with "I Don't Accept" links which go to Disney (isn't that a hoot? Disney gets all this traffic from sex sites!!). If you're one of the guilty, then laugh at yourself. Immediately. Do it. Say to yourself, "Are they low on traffic? Can I help them in their hour of need?" Then find your own damn links. Ours qualifies... link our front page! Okay, same deal with software, namely browsers. Internet Exploder and Nutscrape are the de facto browsers for Windows and Mac OS, and chances are you got to the site which has pimps for those items *with those items*. If you are reading this under a none-of-the-above product (and we salute you!), either you consciously chose not to go with either of those browsers or the OS you're using (and we salute you!) doesn't have a port. Promote some product which doesn't have an advertising budget in the billions and doesn't try to take over your computer. The authors will appreciate that.
