We are pleased to announce a new LUGNET homepage:

  http://www.lugnet.com/

We hope that you find it refreshing and that new visitors will find it
friendly and inviting.

If you miss the old homepage, simply look for it at its new location:

  http://news.lugnet.com/

Special thanks to everyone who gave feedback on earlier prototypes -- your
input was extremely helpful!

Rather than having 2 homepages, is there no easy way to have a cookie or some
such thing, allow users to choose/design their own homepage?

I like the news view so I overrode my bookmark that used to point to www... to
now point to news...

Isn't that easier than using a cookie? At least for now. Certainly if we get
to where non members can customize, maybe cookies are the way to go. But I
would say that for NOW, if you want to customise a "personal entry page" for
yourself, and you're a member... just code one for yourself in FTX, (hung in
the proper place) then set your bookmark to point to it.

At least I think that's one of the (many) uses for FTX, coding yourself up
something special.

If I could remember at least one of my passwords (I have 3 now and didn't
bring any of them with me to the UK...) , I'd sign in and demonstrate one for
you.
