    You could make a html page of bookmarks. I have this and have categories for forums, blogs, shopping, news, weather, etc. I have it loaded on the web, so can access it from any computer. It's pretty simple to do, I think. Making the document is fast, but DH uploads it for me. then, I ad it as a link at the top of IE so I push a button and see a nifty, sorted list of my favorites.

    This is what I do and it drives DH batty. There is absolutely no way any other process else is going to end up a "shortcut" at this point.

    I just don't WANNA. I like my way. It works. Not that I don't appreciate the suggestions. Also, from a marketing standpoint, the Fields need to have new readers of their books say, "hmm, I wonder if they have a website" and find the forums from there.

    I agree. Also, a link to the forums can't be burried at the bottom in the small print. It may as well not be there at all on the page then. And this is coming from a web design POV.

    I also caught a glimpse of the new site the other day, because I'm another person who goes to babybargains.com and clicks the Message Board from there. BTW, the new look was great!

    I sometimes come in through the windsorpeak.com homepage.

    I don't know what my bookmark is - but the "new front page" is making me crazy!

    Are you currently having trouble? What do you see?

    I have the following page bookmarked. It takes me straight to the baby/toddler forums:

    http://windsorpeak.com/babybargains/ is my bookmark. I know it takes me directly where I don't want to go - I just keep forgetting so I have to backtrack every time.
