News Site Tools Administrative7/11/2000; 1:30:41 PM If you have Internet Explorer 5 or greater (hopefully both Mac and Windows...), or are using Mozilla Milestone 16 or greater (which is currently much slower), you should hopefully see some new site tools in the bar to the right.To see how to use them and some notes on their current status, visit the Site Tools Help page.In particular, these tools are designed to be helpful in conjunction with this site's Site Index page. For instance, visit the MP3 & Music page, and filter out all news that mentions Napster. Or look for news that only mentions Napster.I think over time this site will become an extremely useful historical site on the issues I cover, because you will be able to get that sort of information, view it in time sequence, and have it carefully filtered for the good stuff. I do my best not to post repeat stories unless there's a good reason, sort them well, select the best stories, etc. Much better then trying to use a raw search engine.You could write your high school government thesis using just this site and the links Dynamic HTML finally doing something useful on a real site.Technical notes: This stuff is implemented using the DOM 1, and should also work in any other browser that supports it. However, other browsers may not pass the Javascript test, so it's hard to guess what else may or may not work with these tools. Over time, a larger portion of the audience will be able to use it.As a final note, this site should now be fully usuable with any browser, from Lynx to IE5.5, and everything in between. I moved my status bar col. over to the right to enhance this usability. Pike's really cool, BTW... I did that change in 5 seconds, literally.
