However, the use of Netscape as a beginner's teaching tool does have some advantages. The most compelling is that the browser and website composition tool are packaged together in a free, easy to learn product with online tutorials only a click away. Sure, you might not get all the bells and whistles of a full blown development package but you have to crawl before you can walk. Train the Scout troop to use fundamentally sound basic web page design concepts as supported in Composer and the online community will not be forced to view another page crammed full of graphics with broken links that takes multiple minutes to load.
