__ Reporter's Query __
On Thursday, United Airlines cancelled 125 flights after 31 of its planes were damaged in a severe hailstorm in Denver the previous night. Were you a traveler affected by the storm? The Washington Post wants to know if United alerted you that your flight was going to be canceled or delayed and, if so, when and how the airline contacted you. Please e-mail your name, daytime telephone number and a brief description of what happened to Business Class columnist Keith L. Alexander.

Reading the Web is just like reading the newspaper, except the "which section should I start with" problem is a gazillion times as complex. A good set of bookmarks helps, but then you have to keep them up to date and logically sorted. And clicking back and forth from one site to the next is also a nuisance when you visit several sites regularly or reference a bunch of them simultaneously. To try to solve this problem, Quickbrowse (http://www.quickbrowse.com) constructs tailored Web pages that weave multiple search engines, portals or other sites into one big page. The site's newspaper-sites template, for instance, lets you build a customized paper out of the sections you want in online papers. Note, however, that Web sites that use frames may confuse Quickbrowse and not display properly. -- Gabriel Goldberg (gabe@acm.org)
