This is Joe Breskin's personal homepage.
It is where I come to find links to my stuff.
Enjoy ...


Google is sitting at the top of my home page because I probably use Google more than any other tool on my computer.
It is a powerful, Interesting Search Engine - that actually Boolean ANDs all the keywords
Google
Type in a few keywords separated by spaces. Observe the results. Add terms to refine search.
Keywords immediately preceded by - (minus sign) provide Boolean AND NOT function. Learn to use it!


If you have IE 5.0 or better, you might want to check out the Google toolbar, which went beta yesterday. This Toolbar allows you to search using Google from any Web page, search within the site you're visiting, highlight your search term from within the page, etc etc. You can download the toolbar from http://services.google.com/navclient/welcome.html
