Using the internet for research is becoming more and more common, so it’s probably wise to learn how to use it correctly. Though I’ve been using the internet for years, I wasn’t aware that there were “subject directories,” which is basically a general topic. I suppose it’s like a library, browsing the books by genre, then narrowing down the interest to a specific author, and then down again to a book. I didn’t think that could be done. I always had the mentality “If I don’t know what to look up specifically, I had no business being on the internet,” so browsing by subject is a bit mind blowing. The pictures as well helped and put everything in perspective, and that the book used a common search engine such as Google and not some unknown, bizarre, engine made it even more clear to me.
The chart for what websites are generally reliable could be really useful. Being naturally gullible, I have trouble figuring out fact from fiction on the web, and unless it’s something completely outlandish or about a topic I did previous research on, I’ll believe it. Though by experience I have been able to figure out what a reliable website contains, the chart I think will be a good reference in probably the near future.
