 Well, after several months of trying to get on the WWW, I finaly
made it and it is GREAT. Everything that I've heard about it is true, and
more, now my only question is how do I set up my own Home Page.
        The folks at ED Central tell me that they are thinking about it
but don't know how to set it up to start.  Should they open it up to
everyone or to all teachers, or just to Schools. They think that they
will have to charge for training and some other fees, and they will need
a coordinator with some WWW experience to run it.
         The basic process will involve setting up some space at Ed
Central to
host the WWW home pages, so each person or group doesn't have to maintain
a 24 hour link for access to the home pages, and this will cost money to
maintain as well.
        It seems to me that the idea is wild and the possibilities are
endless, for teachers, classes, Libraries, and schools, to set up their
own Home Pages to promote their schools, Etc.  They don't have the total
costs yet, but I think that it would be cheap at twice the price, for all
the things that it could do.
        What do you think,  would you support such a project, what would
be a reasonable fee structure, Etc. ?
