Netscape browser review

I have not downloaded this browser so I will link you to the Washington Post article
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/05/28/AR2005052800163.html.

I use 3 browsers already - Opera , Firefox and IE so I hardly need another one unless it prints money. Giving you the above link brings me to another topic "permalink".

A permalink is a link that you can use to directly link to the document in the website's database. This is specially useful when you want to save a bulletin board posting or a news site article . As time passes web managers move content around redesign sites and move pages. If you link to the page the chances are that if you go back to the link after a few months you will get a apology that the page doesn't exist. A permalink solves this problem. You can use the "permalink" to be sure that the page is accessible as long as the website database is alive.
