Practicality
- I
assume that
others, like me, get
frustrated
when waiting several minutes to access a web page containing complex
graphics
- I
am not an expert
with web
technology.
The page
contains the minimum of "hot" buttons and the like
- Many
of the links
have a finite life
expectancy
so I do not want to spend a great deal of time creating them
- The
web is a very
useful tool, but it
is
a tool
and is only as good as the user
