For online site building, Tripod may be the answer. The Tripod Free account is Tripod's "entry-level plan...lets you discover the fun of site-building for free." Tripod includes 20 MB of disk space so that you may be able to store images, audio, and video files. Tools are included to get the user started. There are set background templates that are of great assistance with color schemes and layout themes. Tools act as task wizards to guide you through the process of site building and functions are relatively easy to figure our for yourself.
Tables help in the arrangement and functional layout of the site - the key element in why one should choose tripod over alternative hosts. The editor can construct table size and number of spaces. Color, spacing, and content may be customized. Video, pictures, and word content may be put into sections and laid out.
The user is allowed such flexibility to start from scratch, utilizing the html editor. This may be a great feature for the professional to customize the site content and layout. Also, this can serve as a way for the beginner or novice to practice their html editing skills. A quick reference html guide is provided by Lycos. Additional features worth mentioning include the file manager and image tools such as GIFWorks, an online image editor
The only difficulty in Tripod is that it is difficult to access your account. There is no easy way of explaining this other than to say that this is one bug that Tripod needs to figure out. Otherwise this is a robust, user friendly, feature packed tool.
Tripod may be used to create classroom portfolios, display projects, or serve as an alternative to Powerpoint presentations within the classroom setting.
Tripod (should receive a near perfect rating, but how can one be able to utilize something that is so hard to access...sigh*) receives an 8.5 out of a scale of 1-10.
