This guide contains some basic information to help you navigate and use the WWW more effectively and hopefully more efficiently. When searching for information try a number of search engines as each works differently and will give different results.
Most sites have pages of links to other relevant sites in their area.
This can be a useful way to find more information on a specific subject. If your computer is taking a long time to load sites look for the 'text only' options on sites which will remove a lot of the graphics. Alternatively try switching the Images off. In MS Explorer go to the View Menu, select Options and in the general section under multimedia uncheck the box for Show Picture. This makes the sites less 'decorative' but they are quicker to load.
