18. WE'RE BACK!

When I said in the first issue that there might be the odd issue skipped, I wasn't kidding. Last minute travel plans account for the present delay but I'm back and issues should now follow each other regularly from here on. On with the show...

19. FREE INTERNET PHONE ... REVISITED

Because of other, more pressing commitments, I was unable to experience the Online Phone since I first mentioned it here but, to quote a friend of mine who registered the program, "it's the best thing since sliced bread". The registered version has no limit to duration of calls and I hear you meet some very interesting people online. And, it is easy to use. Worth a try!

20. DO YOU HAVE USE FOR A REMAILER'S SERVICES?

You wish to send a 'get-well' message to someone but don't want that someone to know you sent it. What is one to do? Answer: Use the services of a REMAILER. The best known such service is XXXX.XXXXX.XX of Finland but there are more around.

NEXT ISSUE'S TOPICS

In the next issue, I will talk about some of those applications you can add to better enjoy your time spent at the keyboard. In the last month, I have been experimenting with dozens of new desktop utilities and dozens of Internet-related apps. There are some goodies out there and they will be covered next time around. So, stay tuned!

That's it for now folks!
