Webshots
Anyone who sees our computer admires our wallpaper and often
notices the fact that it keeps changing. How do we do this
? Webshots. This is a free piece of software which
allows you to show photographs on your computer as wallpaper and /
or as a screensaver. The web site associated with the software
has thousands of photographs which can be freely downloaded.
Additionally, you can add your own pictures into the system. |

However you can also tell it what your favourite programmes are or
what type of programs you like to watch and it will make
suggestions. It works with all TV channels - terrestrial and
digital. |

evolt
This is a bit of a strange link unless you are a real
"techie" ! This site contains an archive of every
web browser published. If you want to download the original
version of Internet Explorer - before it was bought by Microsoft -
or the first version of Netscape Navigator this is the place to
go. Also contains a huge selection of wierd and wonderful web
browsers as well. |

Dimension
4
For all the high technology in a computer, the clock
inside is no different to a normal digital watch. It still has
a little battery and will gain or lose time like any watch.
Dimension 4 allows you to automatically adjust the clock of your
computer based on special Internet clocks that are available.
It can be set up to work invisibly in the background and is
something we've used for years. |

BBC
Weather Screensaver
If we've had our computer on but haven't been using it, you
might have seen our screensaver kick in. We use a screensaver
downloaded from the BBC web site. You configure the
screensaver for the town where you live. It is then able to
give you a five day forecast. The information is downloaded
from the Internet and the software can be set for many towns around
the world. If we are going away, we often use this to
check the weather at our destination. |

this selection of "Dingbat" fonts, a huge selection
