Would you like to create your own website or blog for your home or classroom? Tripod will help you get started for free! Activating an account is free and easy once you get past the small difficulty of reading and entering the validity code. From there you can easily navigate the site to create your own domain, website or blog.

Tripod offers several payment options including free service if you are willing to tolerate pop-up ads at your website. To avoid pop-up ads other payment options include the Plus program for $4.95 per month and Pro for $8.95 as well as pricier subscription services.

Tripod has a variety of web building tools that are easily accessed from the homepage. The tools are designed to meet the needs of everyone, from the novice to the expert web designer. The site builder tool helps you create pages with just the click of your mouse. However, for those with more experience in web design and who are capable of creating and understanding code, an HTML editor is also available.

A free image gallery with over 10,000 images and clip art is on hand to enhance your blogosphere. JavaScript and CGI libraries offer codes to make your sites fun and interactive. Once your site is up and running visit the tools page to create more interactive fun like a guest book and reader polls.

Creating a classroom blog or website is the perfect opportunity for a teacher to maintain open communication with parents. By posting homework assignments and images of classroom activities parents will have a stronger and more open connection to their child and the classroom. A classroom blog introduces students to technology and enhances their communication and interaction skills. With Tripod's tools and image gallery you are just a few clicks away from bringing your classroom into the 21st Century.

If creating a website seems a bit overwhelming, Tripod also has Blog Builder and Tripod Photo Albums. Both come with professionally designed templates for the beginner and advanced customization properties for the HTML savvy. Sharing your digital photos with friends, family and classroom parents has never been easier!

Fast, easy and affordable, visit Tripod today and create a world all your friends and family will enjoy!
