I have a home page I use on all of my browsers. It is a web page I created a couple of years ago which I update quite often. It has links to most of the sites I use on a regular or semi-regular basis. Over the years I have updated, added, and removed links…
A few weeks ago I wrote a series of articles about some Windows 10 tips. I like Windows 10 just fine; although, I realize some of you out there do not. But that is fine. Choices and variety are usually good. However, after a recent Windows 10 update I found something I was really annoyed…
For the past two weeks I have answered questions which I regularly receive from readers. There have been more emails so this week is part three of answers I have given and what I have suggested. Many people ask, “What is the best browser to use on a PC?” This is an extremely hard question…

Welcome to the beginning of our fourteenth year together with the Double Click column. Every January we review the sites that we visited in the previous year. Today is no different. So as always, if the site addresses are too long to type I have shortened them using the "bit.ly" app so the links may…
