Hello,

	I was just on you WWW server, and I just wanted to let you know that I 
think it is great. Very nice design.

	I also wanted to know if you could provide our server a link from 
your server. Our server is a free server (it looks commercial if you see 
it). We aren't a commercial entity. We specialize in "on-the-fly" 
services. By on-the-fly I mean that our server creates things for it's 
users on the World Wide Web. For example you might want to provide links 
to the following pages on our server for your users.

http://the-inter.net/www/future21/html.html

This is our "Homepage Creation Section". We have two services you might 
be interested in. The first is the online homepage creator. It lets users 
fill in blanks (it's a form) and it will create a homepage for them to 
download. It lets you select different backgrounds, and text color, etc. 
Once you fill out all the information it will create either .zip or .tar 
compressed file for you to download! It might help you out because since 
you are the Webmaster you probably get a lot of questions from your
users on how to write a homepage... The second thing you might find of 
interest is the online form/cgi creator section. This works the same way 
as the homepage creator by filling in the blanks except it creates forms 
for you. What's more is that it also makes the CGI script to go along 
with it. I'm sure you aware that most people can figure out how to make 
forms, it's the CGI script that stops them from getting it completed and 
working. Once they make their homepages and install it there is a section 
that will let them release their new homepage to the Internet's search 
engines such as Yahoo, Web Crawler, etc...

We also have other things like an "Internet Wall" where users can post 
one line messages on a wall, an Internet Love Connection where people can 
fill out profiles and make pen pals on the Inet. Please check out the 
server, I am sure you will find it worth while. If you give us a link we 
will be more then happy to provide a link back to your server if you 
would like. I appreciate you taking the time to read this letter, and 
providing us with a link if you feel it will help out your users. 

The main site URL is http://the-inter.net/www/future21

I know you probably get a bunch of requests to provide links to "Cool 
Sites" but The-Inter.net's server was created to help out users with our 
various services such as the homepage creator. Please take a look and let 
us know what you think.

Sincerely,

Sam Hopkins
