Publishing Web Pages on Disk

Unless you were hired to create documents for a company intranet, you have probably assumed that the Internet is the best way to get your pages in front of the eyes of the world. There are, however, three major incentives for considering distribution on some form of disk instead:

• Currently, more people have disk drives than Internet connections.

• Disks can deliver information to the computer screen much faster than people can download it from the Internet.

• You can distribute disks to a select audience, regardless of whether they are connected to the Internet or any particular intranet.
