Finding Your Way
What We Are About
101 Internet Answers is crammed with tools and services that are likely to be
of use to anyone who wants to use the Internet in a practical way—particularly those needing to
advance their small business presence online. So whether you are an Internet developer, a website
designer, a first 'home page' builder or you are in need of email solutions, 101 Internet Answers
is for you.
How Things Are Organized
Despite the name, 101 Internet Answers doesn't answer questions about the
Internet per se. That would make it a mere collection of FAQs. The answers on offer mostly take
the form of software solutions, online services, or pointers towards sites where the subject in
question is covered in depth. It has been organized to help everyone find the resources and tools
they need without getting bogged down in 'tech-talk'. This way, it should be as useful to Internet
'newbies' as to 'knowbies'.
All resources are categorized and initially displayed in the form of
'thumbnail' descriptions, i.e. short outlines consisting of no more than 200 characters. Each of
these links to a web page where a fuller description can be found, and that may be on this site or
on some other website. In other words, 101 Internet Answers is a 'portal', with links all over the
web, as well as to pages within the site itself. (This, incidentally, is in line with the original
vision of the inventor of the World Wide Web, Tim Berners-Lee. To learn more about his view of the
future, and how the WWW was conceived, read The Way The
World Wide Web Works.)
Browsing
To actually explore the site, use the left margin menu. It is divided into self
explanatory categories and subcategories and, in some instances, further subdivided again.
Searching
If you know what you are looking for, the easiest way to find it is by a
keyword search using one or more of the three options below. The first is for searching this
site to find any matches to your requirements in our categorized directory of resources. The
second is recommended if the results don't provide the answer you need or if you need wider
coverage from the outset. It uses SearchFeast (on a separate page) to search the CBmall, a
huge collection of resources that includes many of the greatest ebooks, software and infoproducts
available on the Net. The third is for finding things anywhere on the World Wide Web.
Using these three methods in the sequence suggested will generally produce
far better results than any single search engine would.
Use the text entry box below to search among all categories for specific words. The result will be displayed as a list of
'thumbnails' (in other words, brief outlines) that contain one or more of the key words you
entered.
