Search Engine

A search engine is a programme used on Web sites that allows you to search the Internet for keywords you enter. The search engine generates a list of Web pages that contain your keywords.

Once you access the Internet, you can use a search engine to begin searching for information. You can choose from many search engines on the Internet. To access one of these search engines, type in a URL, such as www.compaq.com. URLs take you to the requested site.

E-mail

A form of mail delivered over the Internet is e-mail. It is like a paperless letter that goes directly from one computer to another. To get e-mail, both the sender and recipient must have e-mail accounts. Your ISP is one possible provider of an e-mail account.
