- Beginning Searches via the Internet



Homework due on Tuesday July 23

Due to the lateness of this assignment, it is not due until just
prior to next Tuesday's class meeting (July 23).

1. Attempt to do an Archie search, followed by an FTP session in which you
will *get* something useful for your web page (a text file, a picture, a
sound, or whatever).  If you have trouble, refer to the FTP search
homepage.
        URL= http://italia.hum.utah.edu/~mnsu96/ftp-search.html

If you need help with Archie, the tutorial homepage for that is found at:
        URL= http://italia.hum.utah.edu/~mnsu96/archie.html

2.  Use WWW search resources to find some links for your homepage.  Use
at least one Search Engine (Web Crawlwer, World Wide Web Worm, etc.) and
one Directory (Yahoo, the Whole Internet Catalog, etc.).  You can find
hotlinks to these on the Search Engines and Direcotries page in the tutorial.
        URL= http://italia.hum.utah.edu/~mnsu96/search-direct.html


After you are finished with these, send an e-mail message to
mnsu96@italia.hum.utah.edu telling what you found and/or what problems
you have had in using these resources.
