The Internet hasn't changed much since it started -- to get things done, you need an array of different applications. But keeping your URLs consistent with all these different applications proved difficult. Clearly, there should be a program just for URLs, which would "talk" to whichever application you wanted it to. That's when what URL?! showed up.
what does it do?
what URL?! started its life to do only two things, and do them as well as it could: drag-and-drop accept, and launch URLs.
Within Netscape bookmarks, your ftp:, news:, and mailto: links all stay within Netscape. What if you wanted to send that mailto: to Eudora? or that news: to Newswatcher? or that ftp: to Anarchie? With what URL?!, this is possible. Not only that, but with what URL?!, you get a more intuitive interface and a richer environment than Netscape. And all for free.
what URL?! is freeware.
