Using the World Wide Web
The World Wide Web is a multimedia window to the Internet that gives you
access to millions of information sources.
Information on the Web comes to you on
Web pages
, which are electronic
documents that you view using a Web page display program called a
browser
.
You can use any of the commercially available Web browsers, like Microsoft
Internet Explorer (which comes installed on your new computer), Netscape
Navigator, or the browser built into America Online.
Web pages
can contain text, animations, music, and other multimedia features.
A group of related Web pages is called a
Web site
. You can access Web sites
to shop, track investments, read the news, download programs, and much
more.
You can explore a Web site or visit other Web sites by clicking areas on a Web
page called
links
or
hyperlinks
. A link may be colored or underlined text, a
picture, or an animated image. You can identify a link by moving the mouse
pointer over it. If the pointer changes to a hand, the item is a link.
To learn more about using the Web browser features, click
Help
in the menu
bar.
