E-cards
Macromedia has a nice e-card section at www.shockwave.com/sw/create/greetings.
Also, visit www.hallmark.com, greetings.yahoo.com and www.greetingsisland.com.
Games
Yahoo (games.yahoo.com), Excite (directory.excite.com/games)
and MSN (zone.msn.com) are among the top Internet game networks.
Plug-ins are not needed to play games on these networks; you only need
to download their java applets which are puny in size and loading time.
All networks provide similar games, so play at the network that you belong
to (according to your e-mail address).
To play Flash games on the net, go to shockwave.com and play games
like InkLink, an online rendition of the old game show Win, Lose or Draw.
You also play Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy at www.station.sony.com.
Chat Rooms
Go to chat.yahoo.com or talkcity.com and chat with our fellow
Americans to greet and wish them happy holidays. Talking to a stranger
is about being a part of the global family.
