I highly recommend the CoffeeCup HTML editor programs! They are easy to use and have some unique and helpful features ... the Snippets are particularly useful.

I personally prefer the Microsoft Word program for all my writing ... I have found the Word program to be reliable and malleable ... the look and function are easy to adjust and the results are professional looking.

When I bought my new computer I decided that it was time for a new image processor ... I tried many and finally chose the LViewPro ... the price is right and the program has everything I need ... I primarily edit photos but I also create graphic pieces from scratch ... the software comes with a complete Help File for assistance with whatever you need to do.

I use Smart FTP for ... well, FTP ... it is completely, absolutely, unquestionably and undeniably reliable ... it has on-line tutorials and an excellent Help File ... it can make tedious and repetitive tasks a breeze.

All HTML code must be checked and rechecked ... the best way to do that is to use a validation program ... I personally prefer CSE HTML Valitador ... they have a free trial version that will demonstrate the feel and flexibility of the program before you buy it ... the prompts are explanatory and the entire program has a user friendly format.

Without doubt, the finest browser on the web is Opera! I have been using this program for over six years and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about it ... Opera is graphically beautiful and, most of all, IT'S FREE. When describing the Opera browser to friends, I always say that if you compare surfing the web to driving in a city, the Opera browser is like driving a sports car and other browsers are like trudging around town in a moving van.

Need a Web Host? This site has been with Hosting Direct since its inception and I am more than satisfied with their prices and performance ... the Customer Service people are phenomenal! Believe me, I have asked them some pretty stupid questions and they have never been impatient or unwilling to help me. They have a variety of pre-packaged hosting plans or you can get a custom tailored plan to suit your specific needs.
