Universal Resource Locators
By Scott T Boyd, Editor
Many of you have asked for pointers to interesting places. We’ve whipped up a
quick hodge-podge of points of interest. It’s certainly incomplete. If there’s
something you’d like to see here, please drop us a note at editorial@xplain.com.
In case you’re not familiar with Universal Resource Locator (URL) format, it’s
essentially
:///.
That’s a bit of an oversimplification (e.g. the path can be far more interesting),
but it should be enough to you started.

Getting on the net
For those of you with only unix shell account network access, you may want to
check out TIA, The Internet Adapter. The Internet Adaptor is a program for unix
systems that lets you emulate a SLIP line in software, and that lets you run software
like Mosaic and NewsWatcher. Telnet to tia.marketplace.com or point your www
browser at marketplace.com for more info.
