You'll appreciate reading about these even more now that you've done the Hunt. Before we start in on HTML, I want to remind you about lynx. Most often it will be the same homepage you see when you fire up your web browser. Do try it out. Some of your patrons will be using this one.
Lynx is a non-graphical world wide web broswer.
You don't need Windows. You don't need a fast modem. And since lynx isn't busy loading those cute graphics, it's much quicker. They are merely cute. And they can take ages to download.
