are some links students in this class have found useful.
They are updated here on our class Web site.
Tip:
Be sure about the extension of the Web address you are
going to. Nonprofit organizations will usually have
Web addresses that end in .org - www.redcross.org
for example. Government Web sites end in .gov - www.irs.gov
for example. Commercial or business sites will end
in .com or .net - www.bjmweb.com
for example.
Tip:
Typing www at the beginning of a Web address
was once required but that isn't the case anymore. You
can eliminate the www in most Web addresses -
for example typing bjmweb.com
will take you to the Brooks-Jeffrey Marketing Web site.
