Jan. 22, 1999
UNIVERSAL LOGIN PREMIERE
The new Universal Login feature premiered Wednesday, allowing members
to access all GeoCities tools with one simple login, one time. Already,
the reviews are pouring in — Faith from CapitolHill writes, "May I
just say that you folks are great?! The whole GeoCities project is
wonderful and the fact that you keep trying to improve things amazes
me." Thanks, Faith — we aim to please. We also couldn't do it without
the help of our Community Leaders, who are always eager to lend a hand
by testing new features and keeping an eye out for bugs! Try the new
login procedure for yourself, and if you have feedback,
let us know.

DREAM DATE GONE AWRY
Thanks for your great Valentine's Day story submissions, GeoMembers!
Here's a little taste of what you'll see when Lovers Lane launches on
Monday: He overcame his shyness to ask her out for Valentine's Day. She
agreed. He planned a romantic evening. When he came to pick her up,
he caught her making out with his best friend. Poor Michael ...
visit
his site to find out how he wrestles with the concept of Valentine's Day!

the great Jan vs. Marcia debate. If you don't know Alice's
last name, Bobby's favorite flavor of ice cream or how much Greg
paid for his first car, visit the
Brady Residence and find out.

iMac or a Furby! (Winners will be contacted during the second week of
February.) Moreover, we'll soon be launching a completely redesigned

let the revolution start without you.

VIRUS ALERT
We've heard reports of a few unscrupulous people sending some ISP
subscribers a bogus e-mail. It states that some files on your machine
are outdated, and that you may lose your Internet connection unless you
save the attached files to your desktop and install them (typically
named setup.exe and data.z, but this may change). Do NOT follow these
instructions! Instead, forward the mail to a valid address at your ISP
and ask if it came from them. And just to be safe, never download
e-mail attachments sent by an address you don't recognize.
