How to get the best from ZDNet UK

ZDNet UK is an information and resources Web site for people who are passionate about computers and the Internet. It's the high-tech hub where you'll find news, reviews, downloads and much more to help you keep up with all the exciting technologies available to you.

To make it easier for you to find your way around the site, ZDNet is divided into nine channels.

News
The latest IT news from the ZDNN network. With five hundred journalists employed world-wide, including a large West Coast office, ZD's online news coverage is unrivalled. Here in the UK, ZDNet News works closely with the news weekly, IT Week, whose thirty-strong editorial team contributes daily reports to ZDNet News.

Reviews
If you are in the market for new products, get an independent view, from ZD experts in ZDNet's Reviews Channel. Products are extensively tested in ZD Laboratories by our award-winning print magazines -- PC Magazine, IT Week and PC Direct. Fully searchable, ZDNet's Reviews channel is the UK's premiere online reviews source for computing and Internet products.

NetBuyer
NetBuyer is ZDNet's 'Buying Channel' -- your online PC convenience store, open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. We have hundreds of new PCs on our buyers database -- search by numerous criteria and then just click a button to buy from the vendor of your choice. NetBuyer takes the hard work out of buying PCs and peripherals -- shop but don't drop!

Downloads
The place to get software. Over 12,000 files to chose from, all rated by our reviewers and virus-checked. There is something to suit every taste, from games to business applications and the ever popular 'Freeware Favourites' collection.

At Home
This is the channel where ZDNet readers go for fun with their computer and the Web. Popular columns include ZDNet Webograms, Davey Winder's Yahoo! site picks, projects -- such as turning your PC into a Quake-powered exercise bike -- and the totally unique TOOT, an exclusive Web tool for solving the great mysteries of life.

ZDNet Freemail
Our free email service is a must for people who want to take control of email overload. A sophisticated email tool, ZDNet Freemail allows you to set up folders, contact books, and even configure your account so that you can receive email from your company into your account. Web-based email services are a must for travellers who don't wish to lug a laptop around with them --just find a terminal where you can log on to ZDNet and presto: you have mail. You will need to enter some brief details in order to qualify for a ZDNet Freemail account.

Games
ZDNet's games Channel is the award winning online games magazine - GameSpot. With regular 'first chance to see' glimpses of the new PC blockbusters, player's guides, competitions, news and reviews, GameSpot is the essential bookmark for PC gamers. In addition to GameSpot, ZDNet offers hundreds of shareware games to download and play, all reviewed, rated and virus-checked and many of them free. PC Gaming World Online is hosted by GameSpot.
