Hello to all my dear subscribers,
Here's another issue, packed with some great free- and
shareware tips, that I'm sure you'll love.
But let me start with some good news!
If you're thinking about creating or building your own web
site, you'll need to know about HTML-code.
My friend, John Gilson, from Brantford Educational Services
sells an excellent HTML-course on the Internet, and he has
agreed to GIVE AWAY the first 21 Lessons to you for FREE!
John's lessons are designed to teach you all you need to
know to code in HTML, even without having any notion of
programming. John used nice images and simple text to
explain all the basics of HTML, so you won't get lost.
Hey, even I didn't, and I've never had computer lessons :-)
You can access John's FREE Lessons via this special link:
http://aaasoftware-ezine.com/htmlcourse.htm
Remember, working long hours at the computer can be bad
for your health, so don't forget to take abreak now and then,
okay?
I don't want to loose you yet :-)
Oh, before you go, I'd like to invite you to take a moment and
participate in my new Shareware Poll. It only takes a minute,
and you can tell the world if you register the shareware you
use... or not :-)
Just click the link below, and scroll to the end of the page:
