Want to make an Intranet page?

Well first of, incase you don't know what an Intranet page is, it's basically a webpage that is only accessible throughout a certain network. For most users that will be a single PC. To make one you can use any basic editor or a specialised piece of software designed to help the user make web pages with a WYSIWYG(what you see is what you get) screen, like Dreamweaver. I don't have this piece of software however and therefore used notepad. It is extremely easy to make an Intranet page and you can inlcude links to all your favourite sites on it and therefor get to them in only a simple click of the mouse.
Open notepad and type in the following code, but do not type in the text between *s this is for your benifit only:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
h1 {color:white;} *Allows you to change the colour of the title*
a {color:white;font-size:30px;} *Allows you to change the colour and the size of your hyperlinks*
</style>
<title>Kennerz's Intranet Page</title> *This text will appear in the tab*
</head>
<body bgcolor="black">
<h1>Kennerz's Intranet Page</h1> *This is the pages' title*
<br>
<a href="http://www.facebook.com/">Facebook</a> *This is a hyperlink, you can make as many as you like to different pages, but make sure to include the full address*
<br> *This makes the next hyperlink appear on the next line*
<a href="http://www.google.com/">Google</a>
<br>
<a href="http://www.hotmail.com/">Hotmail</a>
<br>
<img src="C:\Users\Kenworthy\Pictures\Lightning.jpg" alt="Lightning Picture" align="right"> *This allows me to input a picture onto my Intranet page and align it to the right. You have to replace the address of my picture with one of your own.*
<a href="http://www.linkedin.com/">LinkedIn</a>
<br>
<a href="http://www.siliconera.com/">Siliconera</a>
<br>
<a href="http://unilearn.hud.ac.uk/">Unilearn</a>
</body>
</html>
After you have copied the code and made any adjustments to make it your own, save it as, well, whatever you want to call it, but at the end add .html to make it a web page. You can then open it, go to tool, Internet options and where it says home page click on the button that says 'Use Current'.
Congratulations you now have your very own Intranet Page :)
