Welcome to the pond

There's a new tool for all you Yahoo! users out there. It's called My Web Beta and I think it's pretty cool. It's a way for you to save and organize web sites you want to keep. It's not just mere bookmarks; My Web saves all your sites so that you can access them from any computer. You can search for sites, and even save a copy of the current page so that you still have the info if the page changes.

It's still in Beta and looks like it was just released, so it's not perfect. It works with the Yahoo! toolbar, but the toolbar is only available for Internet Explorer and Firefox. Netscape users like myself are left out. I did find a button you can put on your browser toolbar, but it doesn't have all the features of the button on the Yahoo! toolbar. It doesn't import bookmarks from Netscape, so you have to add your own individually. It really isn't that hard though, if you have the Yahoo! toolbar on your IE. It's fast and easy to add the sites, and after you have them added you'll only need to use IE to add new ones.

I think it's a good idea and I'll continue using it. I just hope they make some improvements and cater to those of us who do not use IE.
