A Little Bit From 7/24 On ZDNet...
Infoseek
Creating a page in WBS--you're given 7MB to work with--is simple, particularly if you use the featured page builder, Web Architect. You don't need to know any HTML, and you do your work in a JavaScript-driven editor much like the one in GeoCities, except a bit better designed. You can choose from eight layout templates, for example. You can also opt to build your page with a more basic editor in which you merely complete a form, or with the advanced editor, a blank form that lets you upload your own HTML.
WBS's Teleporter technology lets you join the home-page community almost instantly, if you've been a homesteader elsewhere. It's like seeing a house being moved on a flatbed truck in the middle of the night: Teleporter copies a previously created Web site in GeoCities or another Web homestead and pulls it into the Infoseek database with one click.
Disney's revamping of Infoseek is expected to draw on the wealth of Web content that Disney owns--including ABC.com, ABCNews.com, ESPN.com, and Disney's sites, as well as the design expertise of Starwave, which has built some of the best sites on the Net. But again, unless you're a business junkie, you probably don't need to visit Infoseek until the relaunch.
