This week I took the leap and bought myself a new PC - the second most
complicated task known to man. (Second of course only to setting up and
configuring the darn thing!)

Browsing through sites like Dell, Micron and Gateway, I found making a
decision was becoming more difficult and that I was getting more and more
frustrated trying to make sense of it all. Dazed and confused, I decided
to pay an old friend a visit. The old friend was Ziff Davis.

http://www.zdnet.com

Ziff Davis publishes over 15 different computer publications covering
a wide array of computing information. With the massive amount of
information at ZDNet, you would think I would have gotten completely
overwhelmed, but I didn't. What makes ZDNet so great is the way it pulls
tons of information into a single powerful resource. As I searched
through the site, I realized how a great resource can make a
complicated task much easier.

***It's often difficult to realize when you are a part of a historic
moment. With the frenzied growth of the Internet and the saturation of
anything Internet into every form of media, it is easy to forget how this
technology is impacting us. So this week I want to point out a
milestone: The 1996 Election is the first in history to use the Internet as
a tool to reach voters. From your computer, you can find out a great deal
about the men and women who want to represent you in our government.
A great site to get to some of that information is Campaign 96
(http://www.96.com). Someday we'll look back on this.***
