Interesting.  Only took about 20 seconds to download, though.

                                                                      

On 5/29/2003 at 4:56 PM a whisper was heard, and the one known as
nightsneak1 was rumoured to have uttered....

          |  From Tourbus:
          |  
          |  Hidden in a corner of my Web site at NetSquirrel.com is
          |  something
          |  called "Classroom Resources," a free collection of zipped
          |  PowerPoint
          |  presentations you are more than welcome to steal.  You can
          |  find my
          |  Classroom Resources page at
          |  
          |  <A HREF="http://www.netsquirrel.com/classroom/";>
          |  http://www.netsquirrel.com/classroom/ </A>.
          |  
          |  The PowerPoint presentations on this page cover topics
          |  including
          |  guidelines for good Web page design, maintaining your PC or
          |  Mac, and
          |  using instant messaging as a tool for active learning.
          |  
          |  So what does all of this have to do with you?  Well, if you
          |  hop over
          |  to my Classroom Resources page you'll find a brand new
          |  PowerPoint
          |  presentation titled "Google 201: Advanced Googology."  This
new
          |  presentation introduces you to some secret Google tips,
          |  techniques,
          |  and tools -- stuff that NO ONE ever tells you about (or, if
          |  you are an
          |  English major, "stuff about which no one ever tells you.") 
          |  From pipes
          |  and stop-word workarounds to full-word wildcards and query
          |  modifiers,
          |  Google 201 shows you how to work Google to your advantage.
          |  
          |  Oh, and the Google 201 PowerPoint presentation is absolutely
          |  free.
          |  
          |  That's the good news.  The bad news is that the Google 201
          |  PowerPoint
          |  file is a tad bit gargantuan (3.30 Mb), so it's going to take
          |  a little
          |  over 8 minutes to download over the fastest dial-up
          |  connection.  As I
          |  have often said in the past, patience is a virtue.
          |  
          |  Also, keep in mind that all of the PowerPoint presentations on
          |  my
          |  Classroom Resources page are -- surprise! -- Microsoft
          |  PowerPoint
          |  files.  [GASP!]  To open and view these files, you'll need
          |  either a
          |  copy of Microsoft PowerPoint (which is part of Microsoft
          |  Office) or a
          |  copy of Microsoft's PowerPoint viewer which can be downloaded
          |  for the
          |  PC at
          |  
          |  <A
          |
HREF="http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2000/Ppview97.aspx";>
          |  http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2000/Ppview97.aspx </A>
          |  
          |  or for the Mac at
          |  
          |  <A
          |
HREF="http://www.microsoft.com/MAC/download/OFFICE98/powerpoint98viewer.asp";

          |  >
          |
http://www.microsoft.com/MAC/download/OFFICE98/powerpoint98viewer.asp </A>.
          |  
          |  Both versions of the PowerPoint viewer are free.
          |  
          |  All of my PowerPoint presentations have also been "zipped" to
          |  make
          |  them easier for you to download.  If you are unfamiliar with
          |  how to
          |  unzip a file, hop on over to
          |  
          |  <A HREF="http://www.netsquirrel.com/classroom/zip.html";>
          |  http://www.netsquirrel.com/classroom/zip.html </A>.
          |  
          |  Enjoy!  I'd love to hear what you think of my new "Google 201"
          |  presentation.  :)
