There are several things that I was able to learn from Mr. Nolan's presentation in class about the web and using searches. I was able to learn that not all search engines are the same and that some give different results for the very exact same searches put into the computer.
I never knew about the 'Google scholar' website and how Trinity had something like that that could help one research things through what we had here in our libraries. One other new thing that I discovered was how to search for websites that only had certain suffix to it such as '.gov' or (.edu). This will come in handy when I have to do research projects and things of that nature and I have to use information only from either government or educational facility websites.
Another neat thing that I was able to learn was being able to view cached sites by Google when the actual site is down. I think this is a very cool and ingenious attribute to the Google website and will help me very much in the future.

Punny title. I will have to tell Mr. Nolan to take a look at it.
Good comments. Please use the spell check.
