The Power of Online Tools
In this session, we'll be using My
Yahoo as a classic example of an internet activity organizer.
If you can't afford to install a Microsoft Outlook software on your
machine (due to system restraints or some other reason), you can
always use freebies like Yahoo. Another good use for this is for
group file sharing. Since it's on the internet,
your colleagues can always access your files even when they're in
another country.
Observe the sample Yahoo Briefcase interface below. You can also
click the image to view the actual size.
Features Present in this sample customized Yahoo Briefcase:
- Message Center - For instant messaging
- Currency Converter
- Calendar - Acts almost exactly as an Outlook calendar
would. It also has alerts.
- Picture Library - Stores images you want to preserve
or show off.
- Current Events
- Address Book
- Comics
NOTE: Many of these features are optional and can be replaced with
other available add-ons.
