Cool Waste Of Time - The Cool, Creative, & Crazy At DotMac.Info
by , 10:00 AM EDT, May 30th, 2003
We're not sure if this is really a waste of time because the stuff on this site is just so cool. Fortunately, that definitely qualifies it as a Cool Waste of Time.
If you have a .Mac account, you know that you can easily share your photos, movies, and other digital items on your .Mac Web page. The problem with the .Mac Web page is that if you wanted to take a look at pages posted by other folks you had no easy way to file through them or search for something in particular.
That's where DotMac.Info comes in. From August Trometer, Editor of DotMac.Info:
Dotmac.info is a place where .Mac members can "Share their cool .Mac stuff!" We feature Movies, Calendars, Photo Albums, and anything else on .Mac iDisks. Because of privacy concerns, Apple doesn't allow search engines to catalog the .Mac Web sites, so Dotmac.info lets people expose their sites and passions to a much wider audience. We also feature Apple and .Mac news, and an active forum.
The news is cool but the real attraction is the information on .Mac users and the eclectic collection of photos and movies that can be found only in .Mac. We strongly suggest that you stop by and check it out. Lots of fun stuff.
Speaking of fun stuff we found through Dotmac.info, you have got to check out Mike's Garage.
Do you have a Cool Waste of Time you found on the Internet? Tell Vern Seward all about it, and he's pass it around...
