critique-ing a web page

Nick Thompson
Thanks, David,

No.   I mean the text.  I guess the only way is to block copy into Word and
go from there.  

It's a small thing.  

Earthlink has a neat web page for idiots tool that could be used
collaboratively.... Sort of PBWIKI on speed, with fonts and frames and
colors and styles etc.  Called Trellix.  

The styles suck ... they all seem like designs for a funeral parlor.  But
one can do quite a lot outside them.  

But of course that does not help in a situation in which you see a friend
struggling with a site (or see your former department doing violence to the
english language on their site) and want help (or whatever it is that old
people do when they offer unsollicited advice.

Best,

Nick
