As a near computer illiterate myself it is nice to come across someone who is
in the same boat as myself, especially when I know the answer to the question
that is being asked. It assures me that I am actually making progress.
Whenever you are on a page on the Internet look in the field in your browser in
which you type a URL, the address of the site to which you want to go to, and
the
URL of the current site or page should be right there.

Well, Ann, since I am only toddling along on the computer and learning as I
go, I sure cannot help you with the URL problem. My question, however, is
how do I even find and send a URL? I have found places I wanted to send
someone, but I sure cannot figure out how to do that. Can you or someone
else give a quick tutorial, please? I know this is way off Bookshare, so
forgive everyone. This is a matter of education. (smiles) Thanks.

Hi all,
I have a small complaint, and I don't think anyone can do anything about it,
but I voice it here. The URL disignations on the Bookshare web site are
almost as bad as those on Amazon. They extend over three lines in some
cases, making it totally impossible to use them effectively in email. I
have had occasion to want to place the URL fora specific book in an email
announcement. When I paste in the URL for the thing, it's something like
one hundred and sixtey chars long! I just got the newsletter with the URLs
for all the articles and the whole message is nothing but numbers, making it
difficult to read.
Some people use tiny URL, but I don't know how to use it. Anhybody have any
ideas about how to solve this one?
Ann P.
