Fritz Hibbler, director of Computer Services and World Wide Web enthusiast, was the guest speaker. Fritz started out by explaining the difference between the World Wide Web pages, News Groups, and e-mail. All of these are done through the Internet. News Groups are posted for and responded to for the entire world to see. It is like an electronic bulletin board.
Web pages are generally non-interactive but very informational.
Fritz demonstrated how to make bookmarks on your own computer so if you have found an interesting Web site you can easily return to it. There are a number of other search engines available, but he selected these two to demonstrate due to their balance between finding good information and the amount of time they spend looking. One of the ANTs asked Fritz how much the UI pays to have Internet access. This money is calculated in the annual budget of and is paid by Computer Services. There have been a lot of discussions related to Banner's inability to handle mid-cycle payroll changes.
