) Domain name: subsubdomain.subdomain.tld
(ex. www.fccj.org
) Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries 12

Navigating the Web
Search Engines and Web Directories Web Directories list websites by categories Search Engines list based on search criteria you specify 57 Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries

... a subcategory listing Keep drilling down and eventually you get a page listing 59 Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries

Directory vs. Search
Directory can take a while to traverse What if categories don't really match what you want For instance, I want to find out info about fabbers Google directory no help I searched...
61 Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries
If you don't find what you want....
Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries 62
.... use a different search engine Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries 63
Search tips
Putting in multiple words mean all must be present But not necessarily on the visible portion of the page Most allow you to use ANDs and ORs to make compound criteria monkey donkey orangutan monkey
AND
donkey
AND
means orangutan Minus sign means page can't have the word monkey
AND
donkey – orangutan Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries 64
Search tips
Putting words in double quotes means that exact phrase has to be present "monkey donkey orangutan" Instead of searching the entire web specify one website with site monkey donkey site:youtube.com
Most have an Advanced Search fill in the blank form to help 65 Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries
Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries 66
Most also have a preference page to control how and what is searched as well as the appearance of the results 67 Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries
Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries 68
Problems with the Web
Can't believe everything Anybody can put anything on a page No "authority" monitors or validates what is put on a page However, something illegal may get the attention of law enforcement Poorly designed sites Traditionally, links on left or at top Lots of images slows page download 69 Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries
The Web
More than just pages available Audio Music, lectures, books Can be downloaded or streamed (viewed/listened to live) Graphics Pictures Animation Video Virtual reality Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries 70
The Web
E-Commerce: Biggest innovation to the Web Not only buy and sell stuff, services too Track shipments, look up grades, financial planning, etc Three types B2C - efollet C2C - ebay B2B – electronic data interchange 71 Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries
The Internet
Besides the WWW there's Email FTP Message boards/news groups Running discussion on a topic Chat rooms Live discussion Telephony – Skype IM Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries 72
Netiquette
General rules for communicating on Internet CAPS mean your YELLING!
Be careful about sarcasm & humor – often hard to "read" Read before sending Emoticons ( ;-) ) and Abbrs ( ROFL, AFK ) are OK for texting but not email 73 Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries
Points to Remember
The Web is just one portion of the Internet Copyright 2012 by Janson Industries A browser enables your computer to surf the Web Browsers also allow you to download files from the Web Lots of stuff, other than pages, available on the Internet 74
