Time is tight for you—it's an issue. How do I know this about you? Well, of all the beginners' Web authoring books out there, you picked up the one that promises to deliver within a specific timeframe. Given what I know about you, I'm placing special emphasis on anything that can get you a great Web page quicker.
Aside from the page generators you discovered in the preceding hour, nothing saves time better than using a template, or using content you've already created in another program, such as a word processor. In this hour, you'll explore both these head-starts to Web pages. At the end of the hour, you will be able to answer the following questions:
How can I turn stuff I already have on hand—such as a résumé or brochure I typed in my word processor—into a Web page without having to start over?
Can I use a word processor or desktop publishing program to create a Web page?
What are templates, where do I find 'em, and how can I use 'em to save time and effort in starting a page?
