Exercise 1 is designed to introduce you to several facets of the Internet:
This is a rather long exercise that you may wish to work on in segments. You should do as much as you feel you need to in order to get comfortable using the Internet. Specific questions are listed below.
You will use Netscape 3.0 as your browser. Prior to about a year ago you would have had to use a different application for each of these components of the Internet. This is a good opportunity to become familiar with Netscape. Please DO NOT change the addresses of the mail box or the news groups. However, you should change e-mail address. This can be accomplished from the Options bar at the top of Netscape.
You should plan to spend about 2 to 3 hours going through the assignments. The assignment consists of serveral parts. Finish all parts and then e-mail me your answers.
