<Base> is a good tag, but in my opinion it has worn out its usefulness.
The only reason one might find it good now is if one has their site stolen. Rookies that steal your web site won't know what <base> is and would therefore end up linking into your site. When we started HTML development years ago, oh that was in 1990, there was no such thing as relative links. So, Mosaic didn't know where to go if you clicked on a link that wasn't absolute or the author didn't include the <base> tag. These days browsers and assistive technologies understand relative links. Therefore, the use of the <base> tag has pretty much disappeared. I hope this helps.
