Hi all friends and guests of <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~srgp/jmtindex.htm">Tri-Counties Genealogy & History Sites of Joyce M. Tice</A> I am forwarding a tip from AOL. It is pretty much what I have pointed out on the list before, but it does good to repeat it. Joyce M. Tice When Web Sites Don't Load Many Web sites simply can't handle all of the requests they receive during peak usage times. From 2 PM - 10 PM, millions of people try to contact Web sites whose servers can't manage the load. Which is why, on occasion, you can't get through. Fortunately, people come and go from Web sites all the time, so if you can't connect at first, it's a good idea to try again. A good rule of thumb is to try back three times before giving up. You can do this by hitting the reload button at the top of your Web window. This tells your AOL Web browser to try to connect with the Web site again. Wait a few seconds between each try, and with good luck, you'll get through. If your patience doesn't pay off, try back again later in the evening or early in the morning when the traffic is likely to have died down.
