Browsing through a diverse set of resources residing on a network using a name service protocol is accomplished with an object oriented operating system.

Attached to the page of the book, tabs indicate the type of resources and are used to navigate through the book. Upon selection of a specific resource, the user may direct the resource to implement a task within a directed fashion. Furthermore, the system allows the user to form personal directories to facilitate the selection of frequently utilized resources.
