  Tips for Effective Web Searching

 

Export favorites/bookmarks

  • To import bookmarks or favorites, on the File menu, click Import and Export.
  • To export favorites to bookmarks or favorites on the same or another computer, on the File menu, click Import and Export.
  • Exported favorites are saved as regular HTML files, so either Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator can import them. You can export a selected folder in your Favorites list, or all of your favorites.
  • The exported favorites file is fairly small, so if you want to share the favorite items with other people, you can copy it to a floppy disk or folder on a network, or attach it to an e-mail message.
  • Save the Favorites file to student computers. They can click and go from one favorite to the next without getting lost in the Web.
