HI Jeff,
Well first things first the page is boring! Its hard to tell where the
google ads end and the page proper begins. I would have categorised the
links into different sections. A bit of colour here and there wouldn't hurt
either.
On to the technical side of things. Please,please,please ditch Front Plague.
It produces horrible code. If I were you I'd spend a bit of time learning
how to code html by hand and also definatly learn at least the basics of
CSS. Your code was fine in 1995 but is now hopelesly outdated. Theres some
great sites just google html tutorials (http://www.w3schools.com/ is a great
place to start)
Good luck!

Everything Paul said. For the google, make the input narrower and
after your heading. I'd float it to the right. Then you need some
content on that first page. Use a paragraph or two to tell what the
odd Info site is about. A page full of nothing but links is a big no
no in my book (although I've got a couple like that still hanging
around).
The idea is great. You just need to work on you HTML/CSS skills and
add some design. As Paul said, the page is boring as is. Good luck.

Loose the "bookmark this page" crap and the visitor counter. Those are very
amateurish. Users know how to bookmark and they don't give shit about how
many people have come before you. This site is crying out for an
interesting cartoon or logo to be in the header space. Move your copyright
and contact info to a footer. Find a good CSS template to use and lose the
Frontpage construction. This was out of date 10 years ago - and still is!
I also agree with the other comments that your first page should not be full
of links - especially when you are including three sets of Google ads.
Makes your site look like a link farm - which it might be. Hurts you with
the search engines and gives you zero credibility with potential clients.
Start over from scratch...
