| Lesson 25: bookmarking a Site | ||||
|
Some sites have difficult URLs to remember. For instance, to search for New York immigration records, the URL would be www.ellisislandrecords.org as opposed to www.ellisisland.com. www.ellisisland.com would take you to a museum, which is not affiliated with Ellis Island Records. To make it easier to keep track of your interests, you can bookmark a particular page, within a site, even if it is within a frame. |
