NETSCAPE NETCENTER: YOUR SPRINGBOARD TO THE INTERNET

Jump from here. That's the launch-point attitude at Netcenter's new Internet portal. Starting in July, Netcenter will incorporate 16 new business and consumer channels, along with a variety of new services. From downloading software upgrades automatically to sending flowers, Netcenter channels offer immediate access to goods, services, and a wealth of information.

Among the new services, Smart Browsing is designed to help you navigate the tricky waters of the Internet. With Internet Keywords, simply type a word such as "Ford" and blast to Ford's site. What's Related displays a list of dynamic links to related sites - great for online research or shopping. Netscape Search & Directory boosts your searches with a complete line-up of search engines in one location. Use My Netscape to design your "home on the web," a personalized home page that displays the information you use every day - news, stock quotes, sports, and more - the moment you log on. WebMail, Netcenter's free email service, allows you to respond to messages automatically and to integrate your organizer's address book with your email. Members can scan incoming attachments for viruses and even be paged when they receive high-priority messages.

Netscape Netcenter. Dive in - the water's fine.

Survey Results
Thanks to everyone who took part in last month's survey about online communities! Here is what 2000 of you told us:

  • In general, newsgroups and instant messaging are more popular than chat. Only 15 percent of you hadn't tried any kind of online community.
  • Of those who do visit communities, 44 percent go daily and 20 percent go several times a day.
  • The thing you like most about your visits is the ability to see what other people are thinking.
  • The most popular forum in Netcenter's Professional Connections is the Product Center.

This month's survey is about customizing web pages. We invite you to tell us what you'd like to see in a personalized home page!
