THE INSIDER
News and gossip from the Guru

It doesn't get much better. It's a new year. The voodoo cold you've had for weeks is showing signs of surrender. And to top it off, you've banished banners from your site by upgrading to our Plus homepage plan. So how do you celebrate and get MORE visitors to drop by your corner of the Web? If you're online, trading links and getting search engines to take notice is good. But what about when you're not one with the keyboard? When you're out with friends, at parties, or just generally enjoying the retro rush of human contact? For those times we suggest a handy stack of personal business cards. A customized pick-your-own-design card, complete with your Tripod URL, e-mail addy, IM name, other vital "this is me" data. Our good friends at VistaPrint (we can see their building from our building ... hey, we're almost family), have a great deal where you can get 250 cool cards for FREE! So what are you waiting for? Work the room.


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

Building with tables. Necessary evil or evil necessity? You be the judge. But until a better scheme comes along, wedging your oh-so creative impulses into those unforgiving "cells" is pretty much the only page layout game in town. But it doesn't have to drive you nuts. Just take it step by step with your Webmonkey pals.

Meet Stephanie Romanov! In the beginning there was Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Then came Angel. True fans of the LA-based slayer spin-off know Stephanie as Lilah Morgan, Senior VP of "Special Projects" (sounds much better than "Evil Projects") at the Wolfram and Hart law firm. Now she's stopping by Lycos to chat with you. Don't miss it!
