THE INSIDER
News and gossip from the Guru

The mood is festive high atop Tripod Central. Baseball season is well underway and our beloved/cursed Red Sox are battling for first place. Each spring, the local nine look unbeatable. Each fall, glory slips through our fingers . . . or rolls between the first baseman's legs. But this year we predict our high-priced heroes will win it all. Against the Cubs, no less. This cataclysmic event will cause the universe to fold in on itself. But it will be worth it.

At this point, I usually like to recommend amazing Tripod sites related to the rant du jour. But alas, Sox sites are in short supply. And to make matters worse, one of the better baseball sites is dedicated to our rivals, the New York Yankees! This is simply wrong. Red Sox nation unite! If you build it, they will win.


BUILDING TIPS AND TRICKS
Find the latest and greatest homepage-building tips and tools here!

Web page goodies like mouse rollovers and scrolling status bars are the work of JavaScript. To teach your site these and other tricks it's easy enough to cut and paste the code. But the DIY approach also has its benefits. The Webmonkey programming 101 class is starting now . . .




MEMBERSHIP QUESTION OF THE WEEK
Get the inside dirt on some of the questions most frequently fielded by our dedicated membership department!

Q: Can I change my membername?

A: Technically, no. Your member name is stored in several places on our servers. That makes changing the name pretty much impossible. If you really want a new member name, you'll need to delete your current member name and sign up with Tripod again. It's just one more reason to choose your member name with care!


SUPER MEMBER SITES OF THE WEEK
From Jay-Z and DMX to Pac impersonators. The word on Hip Hop.

Shine on, you crazy Web site. All Pink Floyd. All the time.

Kirk or Picard? Why choose? 1701DY covers the Star Trek galaxy.
