Launched last June by Apple Computer, Inc., eWorld is exclusively for Macintosh computer users. The software is prebundled with most PowerBook and Performa Macintosh systems. The interface is the image of a town square. Click on a building to access electronic mail, news, Apple product information and software updates, and other services. A major credit card is required.
Access is also available to newsletters and magazines from around the globe.
Members can access Usenet Newsgroups. The newest addition to this online service is Homework Helper, a resource designed to help children with reports or even personal research for yourself.
