Web Navigation (con’t) n URL or “the address” is fastest way to get to a site –Must be typed accurately –Watch the browser icon for activity and the status bar at bottom of screen for progress n Use Search button to locate information when you don’t have an address n Use “Favorites” or “Bookmarks” to store addresses you’d like to revisit

n Internet is sent via the internet n Intranet is sent via a company’s internal computer system, much like a company’s internal house mail - know which one you’re using n Web based accounts can be accessed through any connected computer, anywhere in the world

Writing s n Always include a subject line, salutation (Dear Pat), and closing (Sincerely) n Don’t put anything in writing you wouldn’t share with the world (More & more employers are monitoring & WWW usage) n Use copy & paste whenever possible - this avoids those long headers seen in forwarded messages

Writing (con’t) n Differentiate between Reply and Reply All - reply goes only to sender; reply all goes to all recipients (CC & BCC) n Reply in a Timely Manner - within 24 hours n Use Formal Writing for Business n Review Your Address for Professional Use – for example
