Although it is a small place, it enables us to relax and get away from the busy

<u>Intro to the Island:</u></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: white;">Manukan was the site of an old stone quarry before WWII and the remains of the
old manager's house and some old graves can still be seen. It is now the
site of the Park Headquarters. They were moved form Camp Bay on Gaya Island a
few years ago. </span></div>

Island is the most visited island in the TAR Park, and it is popular with
locals and foreign visitors alike. One of the star attractions and must see on
Manukan Island is the fish feeding at the jetty where large school of fishes
have made their home. You can even snorkel and dive amongst the fish
here! There is a 1.5 km paved trail right to the tip of the island. You
pass through tropical forest and enjoy a different view of Kota Kinabalu
City! </span></div>

Kudat, The Tip of Borneo is the place I first visit in Sabah. <br />The journey took around 3 and a half hours from Kota Kinabalu. <br />This place is situated in the nothern-most tip of BORNEO, which is the third largest island in the world. <br />It is located at the Peninsula of Kudat. </div>

This bread has revolutionized the fate of shop lots at Damai. Foo Yuen kopitiam sells the most awesome bread in the world. It (the butter) melts in your mouth the
moment you put it in. I am having difficulty on how to describe this in proper
words, you have to try it yourself. NICE!<br />

Kota Kinabalu has a surprisingly high mall-count considering
its modest size. Although it’s not ready to compete with cities like Kuala
Lumpur, there are enough bargains and surprises in the shops for you to not
totally shun the Sabah shopping experience.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
1 Borneo, Centrepoint, Wisma Merdeka, Warisan Square, KK
Plaza, Asia City and Suria Sabah Shopping Centre are some of Kota Kinabalu’s
prominent shopping centres with yet more being built.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The Sabahbah.com shopping guide shows you a list of the
interesting and popular destinations for your shopping safari in Kota Kinabalu
and Sabah.</div>

Even though its status is now something like completed, it
seems to be perpetually unfinished and parking and traffic is still sometimes a
problem at 1Borneo.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
There are several public transport options to and from the
hyper mall, including 1Borneo’s own shuttle bus, KK’s City Bus and of course,
taxis.</div>

1Borneo Leisure & Lifestyle Hyper Mall is Sabah’s
largest shopping mall and is located about 10km away from the city centre.</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The mall is home to restaurants, label clothing, department
stores, entertainment outlets, appliance stores and supermarkets.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
1Borneo also houses 3 hotels, 3 apartment block towers, a
cinema multiplex, night spots, a gym and a rumored aquarium that looks like it
will never materialise.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Thanks to the large exhibition areas around the mall,
1Borneo Hyper Mall often hosts exhibitions, events and other high profile
events which attract a lot of visitors. Even though its status is now something like completed, it
seems to be perpetually unfinished and parking and traffic is still sometimes a
problem at 1Borneo. There are several public transport options to and from the

The Asia City Complex is a combination of shop lots, offices,
a mall and yet another nearly-completed-shopping centre.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The mall part of the complex is not yet fully occupied and
with rate at which new malls are springing to life, it never may be, and of the
shops that are occupied, few would catch the fancy of your average tourist.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
There are a few popular restaurants of which Fook Yuen is
hands down the most popular, during the day, and the seafood restaurant facing
the school on the other side in the evenings.Korean, Japanese, Indian and other local eateries are tucked
away in quiet corners in the rest of the mall.A selection of unbranded clothing and accessory shops,
slimming and beauty salons, tuck shops, a hotel or two (plus the Cititel
Express next door), lots of offices and a 3-story car park makes up the rest of
Asia City.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Of interest to tourists might be the permanent strip of a
Borneo arts & crafts stalls that line the walkway between Asia City’s newer

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Karamunsing Shopping Centre is one of Kota Kinabalu’s oldest
shopping centres, but ongoing renovations over the last few years have kept it
relevant.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The unfortunate irony of these upgrades and renovations was
that while they are increasing floor space, tenants and visitors to the centre,
parking is reduced every time they build a new extension over what was
previously parking space.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Shoppers therefore park pretty much anywhere, blocking lanes
and causing what sometimes is Kota Kinabalu’s most annoying traffic crawl
around the permitter of the main building.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<o:p> </o:p>Inside the shopping centre this situation is mirrored by
cramming every possible inch of floorspace on the 1st floor with a stall, kiosk
or display of some kind, forcing visitors into a single file in most places.
The upper 3 floors of shopping are slightly less packed.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Once you’ve fought your way through the traffic crawl and
found a parking space (likely on 6th floor rooftop), you will discover Kota
Kinabalu’s best IT and computer hub inside.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Spread out over the 4th, 3rd and, to a lesser extent, the
2nd floor, is a thorough collection of IT related stores selling everything for
netbooks to notebooks, tablets to transmitters and every IT peripheral
in-between. Eateries, hair and beauty salons, appliance and furniture
stores and clothing shops make up the rest of tenant’s list.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
KK Times Square is an office development located on the
fringe of Kota Kinabalu’s central business district, a brisk 20-minute walk
form Centre Point Shopping Center. Office complex by day, with eateries dotted
around the ground floor, it morphs into a notable nightlife destination at
night, offering a handful of dinner restaurants and bars for a decent night out
clubbing.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
KK Times Square makes a living off its tenanted office space
though, occupied by businesses as diverse as hotels, travel agents, financial
institutions, lawyers, government bodies, oil palm and property developers. Parking
is currently reaching capacity and with occupancy reaching ever higher, it’s
evident that even an entire basement floor, plus plenty of parking topside, will
not be enough.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The 1 exit, with only 2 manned ticket booths, often
struggles with backed-up traffic that can be very frustrating when trying to
exit during lunch hours and at the end of the day. KK Times Square Phase II is
currently under construction on the neighboring plot of land and will
complement the existing offices with shopping and retail space.</div>

Suria Sabah Shopping Mall, or Suria KK as it’s sometimes
referred to, is easily identified by its salad-bowl design. Suria Sabah is a
new’ish shopping mall in the middle of Kota Kinabalu, which, after a slow
start, has finally picked up some momentum and is now teeming with life.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Let’s start at the bottom, where the fastfood is all
together, with a few other choice eateries spread across the higher floors. Metro
Jaya is one of the anchor tenants and spans several floors, while numerous
other shops sell either beauty products or clothing and are randomly dotted
throughout the mall. The Times bookstore is not to be forgotten, nor is GSC
Cinemas, which significantly boosted the visitor rate at the mall. GSC Suria
brought 8 new screens to Kota Kinabalu and now feature 2 3D ready cinemas at
this complex alone. The mall has plenty of parking, which can sometimes be its
downfall, as with only 1 exit and 3 ticket booths, the hundreds of cars the
parking garage can accommodate, will sometimes end up queue for a long time.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Warisan Square was quite revolutionary when it was new,
known for upmarket brands, wide open spaces and a quality feel. It successfully
incorporated an air-conditioned mall experience with an open-air ambiance.
Today the mall is not new anymore, and the neglect is showing. It has succumb to that nasty habit of KK malls to drop their
standards and rent out every inch of their floorspace to pretty much anybody
who will take it, making the walkways cluttered and lowering the overall
quality feel of the mall.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Nevertheless, Warisan Square is said to have 114 shop lots,
not all of which are occupied even after all these years. The perimeter of the
mall is packed with restaurants and coffee shops, whilst the inner atrium and
floors higher up hosts the majority of the retail outlets.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Above the atrium of the main block, as well as in 2
additional blocks on either side, floors are dedicated to office space and 3
separate hotels and reflexology centres.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Warisan Square is still a great starting point for your
shopping safari in Kota Kinabalu as it’s central, cool and has sufficient
variety to deliver a satisfying shopping experience.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
City Mall Kota Kinabalu is located on Jalan Kolombong, about
a 15 minute taxi ride from the center of town.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
As a suburban shopping center it services the sizable
communities closest to it and manages to offer a variety of shops, although not
so many of which are of famous brands. Giant Supermarket is one of the anchor
tenants, with a department store being the other. The rest of the shops comprise restaurants, clothing,
accessories, optometrists, a food court, a bookstore, some electronic and
computer shop and the mandatory collection of fast food joints, which you can
offset with the sizable fitness center.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
City Mall’s only downside is that over weekends and public
holidays it turns into a bit of a traffic nightmare, with lots of double
parking and limited spaces around the building. A Starbucks Coffee facing the main road is a good place to
hide out until traffic clears enough to make a clean getaway.</div>

Centre Point Sabah might not be Kota Kinabalu’s newest or
most beautiful shopping centre, but it’s undoubtedly the busiest and most
convenient in town. Literally KK’s centre point, Centre Point Sabah is 4 floors
of shopping convenience. Entertainment galore is spread across the 5th and 8th
floors with a games arcade, cinema, pool hall and bowling alley. If you’re looking for anything in Kota Kinabalu, Centre
Point Sabah is the best starting point. Being in the centre of the city it’s
easily accessible, it has a good amount of parking and enough escalators and
lifts to make getting around easy. In Kota Kinabalu’s Centre Point you can find all sorts of
clothing, shoes and other apparel, beauty products and perfume, massages,
beauty and slimming salons, book shops, stationary shops, hair dressers,
several different types of restaurants to cater to any taste, tailors and
fabric shops, computer shops, a supermarket and list goes on. Centre Point Sabah enjoys one of the highest occupancy rates
of any mall in Kota Kinabalu and is a solid shopping destination. The mall
proper is open from 10:00 till 21:00, whilst some of the shops on the 4th floor
stay open till 22:00. The cinema ticket-booth is open until the start of the
last movie screening, sometimes at midnight, and the pool hall and bowling
alley stays open until the small hours of the morning.</div>

KK Plaza shopping center is located in the center of Kota
Kinabalu, right opposite the fish and central markets and behind the city’s
main post office.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
As this shopping center is severely unexplored by SabahBah,
there might undoubtedly be treasures by the bucket-load to be discovered at KK
Plaza, but nothing really stands out. A relatively small complex, KK Plaza has 3 floors of
independent clothing, trinket, beauty and cellphone-reload-voucher shops.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
The anchor tenant is Servay Hypermarket, located in the
basement of KK Plaza. There is also a food-court on the 3rd floor, which
attracts tenants of the shops and nearby offices. What is KK Plaza good for from a tourist perspective? Well,
although it only has limited parking, there always seems to be a slot
available, which makes the parking great for visitors to the post office or
nearby fish and fruit market.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Wisma Merdeka is one of Kota Kinabalu’s more established and
successful shopping centers, within spitting distance from most hotels.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
3 active floors of shops, restaurants, tailors and boutiques
are sustained by steady flow of visitors and the tenants in the 2 towers of
around 13 floors of offices above it. A shoppers’ paradise, Wisma Merdeka
appeals more to female shoppers, as technology, gadgets, sports and computer
stores, for male amusement, are in short supply.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
Beauty, health and fashion, on the other hand, abound in a
maze-like layout that seems to appeal to the bargain-hunter and shopoholic who
likes her next purchase hidden around the corner. Of universal appeal are the
food outlets, of which the recently renovated and themed food court on the 4th
floor is the crown in Wisma Merdeka’s culinary jewel. In the food court Halaal, vegetarian and pork vendors all
co-exist, like they do in Sabah, in gastronomic harmony for the greater good of
punters’ full stomachs. There are a few choice eateries outside of the main
food court as well. Off particular attraction to tourists are the many money
changers, souvenir and photo shops dotted around the facility, as well as the
cluster of tour and travel agents located in the adjacent building, Wisma
Sabah. Wisma Merdeka lays claim to having the largest golf shop in Kota
Kinabalu.</div>

These are the reasons why I am in Sabah. First of all, let me briefly introduce myself. I am UMS second year student, currently taking Mass Communication as my major program. I have access to Sabah 'Land Below The Wind', a really beautiful and favourable comparable with Paradise. I have been to few tourist destinations. One of them is "Kota Kinabalu Sabah City Excitement" where I have shared on the previous post. Sabah has a lot of must-go and must-travel places.

It was my first time visited Aquarium Marine Museum in University Malaysia Sabah. I am pretty sure you will be attracted by the reef corals and fishes. It is open daily except Wednesday and Public Holidays (do take note so that you won't come at the wrong day :) besides that, outsiders will be charged Ringgit Malaysia 5 entrance fee and for UMS students, you have to show your Student ID in order to get free entrance.<br />

City Mosque is the most beautiful mosque I have ever seen. We passed by this mosque when we were on our way to town and the taxi driver introduced to us this, one of the famous floating mosques in Malaysia. Other than that, this mosque was built in 2000. It has a prayer hall which houses three madrasahs and accommodates around 9, 000 to 12, 000 people at a time. I will take some of my spare time to visit this mosque before I graduate, a new year resolution, maybe?</div>

Gaya Street is similar to "Pasar Malam" in West Malaysia. The reason why it is called Sunday Market is because it opens on Sunday, 0600 hours to 1300 hours. But, a friendly reminder to everybody, do bring along paper fan or cap as you will be spending the whole morning under the hot sun. I really enjoyed myself here though.</div>

Jesselton Point Waterfront is the only ferry terminal for Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park and Labuan-bound. I have been here when I returned back to KK from Labuan. It was a good experience. Besides that, there are handicraft stalls, Food and Beverages outlets, casual dining restaurants along the street.</div>

<span style="background-color: #cfe2f3; font-family: inherit;">This is one of the most fantastic cities you ever have been to. A modern capital with a warm hospitality that you hardly find in many places around the world. Just around a corner you have long sandy beaches, paradise islands, virgin coral reefs, tropical rain forests; and the mighty Mount Kinabalu is only 90 minutes away. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #cfe2f3; font-family: inherit;">Kota Kinabalu is situated on the tropical island of Borneo, and is the state capital of the Malaysian state Sabah, which is one of the two states of East Malysia. The location of the city is absolutely amazing; and from the airport it is just a short ride to mostly any hotel. You find a world class sailing marina and championship golf courses as well as both first class holiday resorts and good hotels for the budget traveler.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: #fce5cd; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Formerly known as the Kota Kinabalu Ferry Terminal, Jesselton Point Waterfront has become one of the main city attractions in Kota Kinabalu ever since its privatization in February 2006.</span></div>
<div style="list-style-type: square; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #fce5cd;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Situated north of downtown Kota Kinabalu, this quaintly scenic place has an unmistakable historical feel to it—complete with olden days snapshots of Kota Kinabalu city (Jesselton) and vintage red English phone booths. Jesselton Point Waterfront serves as the only ferry terminal for Labuan-bound passengers as well as the main (and cheapest) boat terminal for the Tunku Abdul Rahman Marine Park and Gayana Island. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Jesselton Point Waterfront also offers casual dining, leisure and retail experiences with its array of alfresco F&B outlets, handicraft stalls, and a four-court futsal centre. In addition, fishing aficionados are now welcome to spend the evening fishing at the jetty from 6pm to 6am for only RM10 per entry (payable at the Suria Futsal Centre). However, fishing gears are not provided so visitors need to bring their own.</span></span></div>
<div style="list-style-type: square; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #fce5cd; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the near future, the Jesselton Point Waterfront is going to be expanded to cater more recreational, commercial, residential, and retail facilities. Having been the venue for the KK Jazz Festival 2007, the Jesselton Point Waterfront jetty is also bookable for social functions—be it dinner parties, fundraising concerts or even weddings.</span></div>
<div style="list-style-type: square; text-align: justify;">
<span style="background-color: #fce5cd; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After a long hard day at work, the Jesselton Point Waterfront is an excellent place to wind down and catch the breathtaking sunset!

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span lang="EN-US">There are different stories about the origin of state’s name. The Tidong
community claims that the name came from the fishing hook which called Tawau.
The stories begin when the British came to the state where when the British
asked the name of Tawau River, Tidongs community mention the word Tawau as a
mistaken of Tidongs community as they think British ask them what are they
doing due to not understanding English.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span lang="EN-US">On the other hand, Bugis claimed that Tawau means it is their “ownership”,
while the Cocos Islander community explained that Tawau came from the words “tawar”
in the meaning of no taste or lack of power of people felt when they entered
Tawau.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Each
local communities believed that the origin of Tawau’s name is related to their
community. From tradition view, there is a kind of very bitter herbal leaves
called “tawao” which is taken raw when encountered sugar level problems or
diabetic. This however is also said to be relate to the origin of Tawau’s name.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">I have
personally been to Tawau on 4 days 3 nights trip. Tawau gave me friendly images
as I was fully overwhelmed by the warmth of the locals. I went there with some
of my friend following a friend origin from Tawau. We were allowed to stay in
her house, welcomed warmly by them and able to enjoy the local cuisine and
learning their tradition. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">My
friend hometown is located on a village not far from Tawau Town. Her house is
located on a small hill and was a little tilt which makes me felt nervous whenever
climbing it. Most of the house here are double stories and was combinations of
brakes and wood. On the other hand, another friend of mine that origin in Tawau
stays in a house which is high from ground due to the geographic factor. His
house is along the seaside which is in the area affected by the tide of the sea.
We could see the sea from his house and the view is indescribable. Every day
when the sea level increase, the water will flood into the area and making it
seems like the house is built in sea.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">The family
cuisine in Tawau is mostly the same as the other region in Sabah but I found it
interesting when we are provided lunch on deer meat (venison). I were told that
the deer that we eat are those which the family hunt themselves in the jungle.
It is an amazing fact for me and was the first time I eat deer meats. Quite
delicious I must admit.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">I’ve
never been to much of the attractions but I do appear to be in Tawau Town a
lot. The town is not too busy yet still full of people. Since Tawau is along
the seaside, we can just feel the breeze from the sea when we are hanging
around the seaside. From the seaside of Tawau Town, we are able to have a view
of our neighbor country which is land of Indonesia over the other side of the
sea. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">About
the local food, I was told that Nasi Lalap was a must to try in Tawau. Nasi
Lalap is basically rice cum chicken with a very unique sauce. My friend claimed
that Nasi Lalap in Tawas was the best among the Sabah. There are lots of stores selling that along
the Tawau Town too. Nasi Lalap is a new dish for me and it taste good. The rice
is in a form of either fried or not according to a person preferences and what
makes it special was the chicken and the sauce accompanied. The chicken of Nasi
Lalap is cooked in a unique way along with the spices and the sauce also specially
made with a really delicious aroma which makes me can’t help but have more of
it. The dish is too best to serve with a fresh coconut drink and with the feel
of seaside breeze.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">I passed
through one of the attraction which is Bukit Gemok that usually a place for
jungle hiking. It is not really that fat like stated in its name “Gemok” and I wonder
where the name came from. However, the greenish view of the hills is a rare
treasure for me whom live in cities with less plant to start with. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">Besides,
there was little experience that I found interesting and memorable. We were
given chances to spend a night or actually slept in a pavillion in the middle
of the sea. It is connected to the road by a small bridge build by wood. It is
quite scary at first since when we walked we were actually quite high on the
sea. We can hear the sound of the sea waves hitting the seaside and feel the
cold breeze at night. Furthermore, we were enjoying the full moon that night. Of
course it would be bad to mention that it rain in the middle of the night which
makes us have to ran back to our vehicle and head straight back to home.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US">We too
was brought to a high lands and we could view the whole Tawau below. The Tawau
city in night view is quite adorable and the light along the road is seems to
show that the day ever end when the night city started to operate. When we get
to higher level of the highlands, our cell phone was disconnect with Malaysia’s
mobile operator and we are connected to the Indonesia operator although at the
moment we were in Malaysia territory. It is a sign that shows we were really
near to the border of Malaysia and Indonesia. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

a unique way that the beautiful memory belong only to you.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Web search engines work by sending out a spider<a data-ls-seen="1" href="http://www.webopedia.com/TERM/S/spider.html"><i></i></a> to fetch as many documents as possible. Spider also called "crawler" or a "bot" which can goes to every pages or can representative pages on every web site that wants us to be searchable and
reads it. By using this spider which will using hypertext links on each page to discover and read a
site's other pages.
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Another program, called an <i>indexer,</i> which can reads these documents and creates an index based on the words contained in each document. Each search engine uses a proprietary algorithm to create its indices such that, ideally, only meaningful results are returned for each query.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h4>
Different Search Engine Approaches</h4>
<ul>
<li>Major search engines such as Google, Yahoo (which uses Google),
AltaVista, and Lycos index the content of a large portion of the Web and
provide results that can run for pages - and consequently overwhelm the
user.
</li>
<li>Specialized content search engines are selective about what
part of the Web is crawled and indexed. For example, TechTarget sites
for products such as the AS/400 (http://www.search400.com) and CRM
applications (http://www.searchCRM.com) selectively index only the best
sites about these products and provide a shorter but more focused list
of results.
</li>
<li>Ask Jeeves (http://www.ask.com) provides a general search of
the Web but allows you to enter a search request in natural language,
such as "What's the weather in Seattle today?"
</li>
<li>Special tools and some major Web sites such as Yahoo let you
use a number of search engines at the same time and compile results for
you in a single list.
</li>
<li>Individual Web sites, especially larger corporate sites, may
use a search engine to index and retrieve the content of just their own
site. Some of the major search engine companies license or sell their
search engines for use on individual sites.
</li>
</ul>
<h4>
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=8342853028246660132" name="where">Where to Search First</a></h4>
According from Open Directory Project listed 370 search
engines available for Internet users. There are about ten major search
engines, each with its own anchor Web site (although some have an
arrangement to use another site's search engine or license their own
search engine for use by other Web sites). Some sites, such as Yahoo,
search not only using their search engine but also give you the results
from simultaneous searches of other search indexes. Sites that let you
search multiple indexes simultaneously include:
<br />
<ul>
<li>Yahoo (http://www.yahoo.com)</li>
<li>search.com (http://search.com)</li>
<li>EasySearcher (http://www.easysearcher.com)</li>
</ul>
Yahoo first searches its own hierarchically-structured subject directory
and gives you those entries. Then, it provides a few entries from the
AltaVista search engine. It also launches a concurrent search for
entries matching your search argument with six or seven other major
search engines. You can link to each of them from Yahoo (at the bottom
of the search result page) to see what the results were from each of
these search engines.
<br />
A significant advantage of a Yahoo search is that if you locate an entry
in Yahoo, it's likely to lead you to a Web site or entire categories of
sites related to your search argument.
<br />
A search.com search primarily searches the Infoseek index first but also
lets you search the other major search engines as well.<br />
<br />
EasySearcher lets you choose from either the popular search engines or a
very comprehensive list of specialized search engine/databases in a
number of fields.
<br />
Yahoo, search.com, and EasySearcher all provide help with entering your search phrase. Most Web <a href="http://searchcio-midmarket.techtarget.com/definition/portal">portal</a> sites offer a quickly-located search entry box that connects you to the major search engines.
<br />
<h4>
<a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=8342853028246660132" name="howtouse">How to Search</a></h4>
For "tips" on entering your search argument, see each search engine,
including Yahoo's . It's good to read the information at least once.
By "How to Search," we mean a general approach to searching: what to try
first, how many search engines to try, whether to search USENET
newsgroups, when to quit. It's difficult to generalize, but this is the
general approach we use at whatis.com:
<br />
<ol>
<li>If you know of a specialized search engine such as SearchNetworking
that matches your subject (for example, Networking), you'll save time by
using that search engine. You'll find some specialized databases
accessible from Easy Searcher 2. </li>
<li>If there isn't a specialized search engine, try Yahoo.
Sometimes you'll find a matching subject category or two and that's all
you'll need.
</li>
<li>If Yahoo doesn't turn up anything, try AltaVista, Google,
Hotbot, Lycos, and perhaps other search engines for their results.
Depending on how important the search is, you usually don't need to go
below the first 20 entries on each.
</li>
<li>For efficiency, consider using a ferret<a href="http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/ferret"></a> that will use a number of search engines simultaneously for you.
</li>
<li>At this point, if you haven't found what you need, consider
using the subject directory approach to searching. Look at Yahoo or
someone else's structured organization of subject categories and see if
you can narrow down a category your term or phrase is likely to be in.
If nothing else, this may give you ideas for new search phrases.
</li>
<li>If you feel it's necessary, also search the usenet<a href="http://searchnetworking.techtarget.com/definition/Usenet"></a> newsgroups as well as the Web.
</li>
<li>As you continue to search, keep rethinking your search
arguments. What new approaches could you use? What are some related
subjects to search for that might lead you to the one you really want?
</li>
<li>Finally, consider whether your subject is so new that not much
is available on it yet. If so, you may want to go out and check the
very latest computer and Internet magazines or locate companies that you
think may be involved in research or development related to the
subject.
</li>

Search engines put together a database of sites by sending "spiders" or
"robots" to crawl through the Web, going from link to link. When <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1472-windsor-castle-attacked-by-venomous-spiders" title="Windsor Castle Attacked by Venomous Spiders?">spiders</a>
get to a Web site, they index most of the words on the available pages.
When you use a search engine, the engine scans its database of sites to
match your keywords to those same keywords in pages in the database.</span></div>

<h3>
Basic Search Tips</h3>
It's easy to improve your search results. All you need to know are
some basics. Some search engines have menus to do this but for others
you have to enter the right commands. The following basic commands
should be plenty of info for most people and should work in most of the <span style="color: black;"><a class="kLink" href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1900-search-engine-tutorial#" id="KonaLink1" style="font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static; text-decoration: underline !important;"><span style="font-family: inherit ! important; font-size: inherit ! important; font-weight: inherit ! important; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid blue; font-family: inherit ! important; font-size: inherit ! important; font-weight: inherit ! important; position: static;">major </span><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid blue; font-family: inherit ! important; font-size: inherit ! important; font-weight: inherit ! important; position: static;">search </span><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid blue; font-family: inherit ! important; font-size: inherit ! important; font-weight: inherit ! important; position: static;">engines</span></span></a>.</span><br />
<h3>
Be Specific</h3>
The more specific you are, the more info you'll find. Tell the search
engine exactly what you're looking for. For example, if you're looking
for science experiments, enter <span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1762-school-science-fair-project-examples-and-ideas" title="Science Fair Project Examples & Ideas">School Science Fair Projects</a> instead of science projects. If you know it's a <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1865-the-periodic-table-of-elements-periodic-chart" title="The Periodic Table of Elements - Periodic Chart">chemistry</a> experiment, add the word chemistry to your search.</span><br />
<h3>
The + Symbol`</h3>
Put the most important terms in your search first. To make sure the
search finds pages with all the words you're looking for, put the +
symbol in front of each word. For example, if you're looking for info on
<span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/152-britney-spears-biography" title="Britney Spears Biography">Britney</a> and <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1880-music-buzz-21-britney-justin-break-up-rumor" title="Music Buzz #21, Britney/ Justin Break-Up Rumor">Justin</a> (like if they're still together) then enter +Britney +Justin. Only pages that have both words will be on the list.
</span><br />
<h3>
The - Symbol</h3>
If you're looking for something specific but don't want tons of other
info that's not related to your topic, use the - symbol. For example,
if you're looking for info on <span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1888-tony-hawks-boom-boom-huckjam-tour" title="Tony Hawk's Boom Boom Huckjam Tour">Tony Hawk</a> but don't wanna read about his games, enter Tony Hawk -Pro -Skater -game -Playstation. </span><br />
<h3>
Using Quotation Marks</h3>
When you put your search terms in quotation marks, it's called a
"phrase search." The search engine will give you pages that have the
terms in the exact order of the words in quotations. For example, if
you're looking specifically for a biography on Sarah Michelle Gellar,
enter "<span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/145-sarah-michelle-gellar-biography" title="Sarah Michelle Gellar Biography">Sarah Michelle Gellar Biography</a>" and see what comes up. </span><br />
<h3>
Combining Symbols</h3>
Once you know how the above symbols work, try combining them to
narrow down your search. A better search, than using a bunch of
subtractions, might be to do the following: "<span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1887-kylie-minogue-fever-prize-pack" title="Kylie Minogue Fever Prize Pack!">Kylie Minoque</a>" -Fever -"<a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1804-kylie-minogue-fever-cd-review" title="Kylie Minogue - Fever - CD Review">CD Review</a>"</span><br />
<div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">
<br />
<h3>
Booleans</h3>
Booleans (pronounced boo lee ans) can be used in most major search
engines when they allow some kind of advanced searching. The most
popular boolean operators are AND, OR and NOT. Booleans are a lot like
the + and - symbols. AND means "include all of the words," OR means
"include any of the words" and NOT means "exclude." For example, if
you're looking for info on music and dancing enter music AND dancing.
Your search will bring back sites that only include both those words.<br />

<h3>
Most Popular Search Engines</h3>
<a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/redirect?link=http://www.google.com" target="_self"><b>Google</b></a><br />
This is one of the <a class="kLink" href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1901-search-engine-tutorial-2#" id="KonaLink0" style="font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static; text-decoration: underline !important;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: inherit ! important; font-size: inherit ! important; font-weight: inherit ! important; position: static;">best </span><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: inherit ! important; font-size: inherit ! important; font-weight: inherit ! important; position: static;">search</span></span></a>
engines out there. You don't have to deal with the advertising or
search directories that other search engines include. Google lists your
search hits according to what sites are the most popular and most
visited. There's also an 'I'm Feeling Lucky' search option. You click on
the 'I'm Feeling Lucky' button and conduct your search as normal except
it takes you directly to the first site on the list. Apparently the
first site that Google gives you is the best site. This isn't always
true but it can save you time if you know exactly what it is you're
looking for.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/redirect?link=http://www.yahoo.com" target="_self"><b>Yahoo</b></a><br />
Yahoo was one of the earliest search engines on the net. It hasn't
continued to be the best though. You can't do advanced searches to limit
the amount of hits your search will receive like most <a class="kLink" href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1901-search-engine-tutorial-2#" id="KonaLink1" style="font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static; text-decoration: underline !important;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: inherit ! important; font-size: inherit ! important; font-weight: inherit ! important; position: static;">other </span><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: inherit ! important; font-size: inherit ! important; font-weight: inherit ! important; position: static;">search </span><span class="kLink" style="background-color: transparent; border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: inherit ! important; font-size: inherit ! important; font-weight: inherit ! important; position: static;">engines</span></span></a>.
Yahoo's site is also a place where you can shop, check your horoscope,
email and the day's weather forecast. Yahoo also has a great subject
directory. <br />
<a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/redirect?link=http://www.excite.com" target="_self"><b>Excite</b></a><br />
Your search results are sorted not by how popular the sites are but by
which sites match your keywords the best. However, Excite's site is
really cluttered. If you can find the search tool sandwiched between
advertising, news and more advertising, then it will do the job. You can
search for images here as well, so that's an added bonus.<br />
<a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/redirect?link=http://www.msn.com" target="�_self�"><b>MSN</b></a><br />
Like so many of the other search engines, MSN has tons of shopping
options. It also has the top news headlines, a link to your Hotmail
account and lots more. The actual search tool is located on the far
right of the page, so it's easier to use and locate than Excite's.<br />
<a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/redirect?link=http://www.altavista.com" target="�_self�"><b>AltaVista</b></a><br />
<a class="kLink" href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1901-search-engine-tutorial-2#" id="KonaLink2" style="font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static; text-decoration: underline !important;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="color: blue !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;">AltaVista</span></span></a>
updates its database (that's where your search results come from)
daily. They have over 31 million Web sites in their database, so you're
bound to find what you're looking for. It's also a really neat and tidy
site. It offers a subject directory, news and ad links - all clutter
free. <br />
<div style="background-color: white; border: medium none; color: black; overflow: hidden; text-align: left; text-decoration: none;">
<br />
<h3>
Where To Go For Images</h3>
Have you ever had trouble searching for pictures on the web? If you
need pictures but don't feel like spending hours inspecting hundreds of
sites for the perfect pic then hit a search engine image bank. <br />
For example, if you head to <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/redirect?link=http://www.mamma.com" target="�_self�">www.mamma.com</a>,
click on the box marked The Web, scroll down and then click on images.
Type whatever it is you're looking for in the search box the same way
you would if searching for a Web site. The result will be tons of great
images at your <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1438-cracking-down-on-knuckles" title="Cracking Down on Knuckles">fingertips</a>.
Remember though that many pictures are copyrighted and cost money to
download. Make sure you check whether the image you want is free before
you download. Some <a class="kLink" href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1902-search-engine-tutorial-3#" id="KonaLink1" style="font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static; text-decoration: underline !important;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="color: blue !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;">other </span><span class="kLink" style="color: blue !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;">search </span><span class="kLink" style="color: blue !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;">engines</span></span></a> that have image banks are <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/redirect?link=http://www.google.com" target="_self">Google</a> and <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/redirect?link=http://www.altavista.com" target="_self">AltaVista</a>.<br />
<h3>
Subject Directories</h3>
If you're looking for info on popular topics, <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1886-product-placement-good-bad-or-ugly" title="Product Placement - Good, Bad or Ugly?">commercial</a>
sites, products or a specific interest, use a subject directory.
They're usually smaller than search engines but they're created and run
by <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1182-bizarre-stuff-incredible-human-feats" title="Bizarre Stuff - Incredible Human Feats">humans</a>, not <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/159-wild-things-bite-of-the-black-widow" title="Wild Things :: Bite of the Black Widow">spiders</a> or <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1016-ai-artificial-intelligence-movie-review" title="AI, Artificial Intelligence Movie Review">robots</a>.
Directories are also good if you don't know what you're looking for.
Most directories have a keyword search option so you don't have to dig
through almost-related topics. For example, if you're looking for math
help but don't know exactly what kind of help or math you need, check
out a subject directory on math. There's tons of sections that might
lead you to exactly where you're looking instead of having to sort
through thousands of pages at a <a class="kLink" href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/1902-search-engine-tutorial-3#" id="KonaLink2" style="font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static; text-decoration: underline !important;"><span style="color: blue; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;"><span class="kLink" style="color: blue !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;">major </span><span class="kLink" style="color: blue !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;">search </span><span class="kLink" style="color: blue !important; font-family: inherit !important; font-size: inherit !important; font-weight: inherit !important; position: static;">engine</span></span></a>. If you're looking for something specific, it's better to go with a search engine. Yahoo and <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/redirect?link=http://www.looksmart.com" target="�_self�">LookSmart</a> are examples of Subject Directories. <br />
<h3>
What are MetaCrawlers?</h3>
MetaCrawlers are search engines that send your search questions out
to most of the major search engines all at once, unlike a singular
search engine like Google that just searches its own database. The
results from a search on a metacrawler are usually grouped according to
the search engine they were found on. You can also search for <a href="http://www.kidzworld.com/article/490-artist-andy-warhol-biography" title="Artist - Andy Warhol Biography">images</a> through a metacrawler. Here are Kidzworld's Top 5 MetaCrawlers:<br />

A search engine is a web site that collects and
organizes content from all over the internet. Those wishing to locate
something would enter a query about what they'd like to find and the
engine provides links to content that matches what they want.As regards real estate, millions of searches are done each day on
mulitple search engines for search queries like "Atlanta real estate",
or "atlanta ga real estate". The search engine returns results for
real estate related sites and content for the Atlanta, GA area in this
case. The sites are ranked by highly secret and complex formulas.
These formulas are also changed frequently by the engines.Though there are many who attempt to manipulate their sites to get
higher placement in results, it's generally best to provide highly
relevant real estate and area content and make it very useful for your
site visitors. As all the engines are striving to be the most popular
based on results that are closest to what the searcher is looking for,
it can only be a good strategy to provide that relevant content.<br />
<b> The 10 most useful Search Engines of 2012</b><br />

<li>Helpful options to broaden or tighten a search</li>
</ol>

At
first, DuckDuckGo.com looks like Google. But there are many subtleties
that make this spartan search engine different. DuckDuckGo has some
slick features, like 'zero-click' information (all your answers are
found on the first results page). DuckDuckgo offers disambiguation
prompts (helps to clarify what question you are really asking). And the
ad spam is much less than Google. Give DuckDuckGo.com a try... you might

The
Ask/AJ/Ask Jeeves search engine is a longtime name in the World Wide
Web. The super-clean interface rivals the other major search engines,
and the search options are as good as Google or Bing or DuckDuckGo. The
results groupings are what really make Ask.com stand out. The
presentation is arguably cleaner and easier to read than Google or
Yahoo! or Bing, and the results groups seem to be more relevant. Decide
for yourself if you agree... give Ask.com a whirl, and compare it to the

Bing tries to support your researching by offering suggestions in the

top of the screen. Things like 'wiki' suggestions, 'visual search', and
'related searches' might be very useful to you. Bing is not dethroning

<br /><br />
Online research has become an essential skill for writers. What
typically took place in libraries, by phone calls or visits to experts
in the field is being changed because of the
Internet. Experts can sometimes be contacted by email and information,
whether it is
addresses, phone numbers, or detailed specifics on a certain subject,
can be accessed on the World Wide Web. Search Engines have become the
most important tools in locating this information, so it is important to
know how to use them effectively. Search skills can
be developed through practice in using the search engines and by reading
the help pages provided by the search engines themselves. Over time,
you will learn which search engine is good for pulling up what kind of
information. This article will provide a general overview of the
various search engines and some of their advanced search features which
will help you with your online research.
<br /><br />
<b>What Are the Major Search Engines?</b>
<br /><br />
There are many search engines and internet directories, but
familiarizing yourself
with several major ones will be enough to get your online research off
to a good start. The main search engines included in this article are
InfoSeek, Yahoo, Excite, HotBot, AltaVista, Lycos and LookSmart;
LookSmart and Yahoo are actually large directories rather than true
search engines. Even these large commercial search engines and
directories have been found to search only a small portion of the Web;
however,
this is typically enough to help you get to the right webpage that
contains the information
you are looking for or to a website that contains links to other sites
containing
information on your subject. Many of the major search engines are also
becoming
known as "Internet Portals" because they provide a number of popular
services for the frequent internet user.
<br /><br />
<b>The Basics</b>
<br /><br />
When searching there are some simple rules to keep in
mind. Generally the more keywords you use in your search
the more specific and accurate your results will be. For
example, a search for the Chicago Bulls Star, Michael
Jordan, will produce better results if you search for
the words "Michael Jordan Chicago Bulls" than if you
search for just "Michael Jordan" which might bring up
links to websites containing references to another person
named Michael Jordan. However, if there was an article that
did not mention the "Chicago Bulls", but did contain
information about Michael Jordan (the Chicago Bulls Star),
then you might miss out on this webpage. Therefore, you
should try to fine tune the search as much as possible
without being so strict on your keywords that you might
miss something important. For example, Michael Jordan
also starred in a Loony Tunes Movie named <i>Space Jam</i>, but
searching for "Michael Jordan Space Jam" might eliminate some choice
sports articles simply because they don't mention the movie. Try to use
additional keywords that you think would be mentioned in the article or
website you are looking for; this will help to eliminate unwanted
results.
<br /><br />
An easy way to simplify a search on many of the search engines is to
place quotes around the topic, for example "Michael Jordan" or "Honey
Bees" or "Student Contests." This way, the search will focus on the
word combination and not bring up all the pages that contain the word
Micheal or the word Jordan or Student or Contests. Some search engines
will also perform this same function when you place a + sign in front
the keywords such as +Student +Contests.
<br /><br />
<b>Search Engines Do More Than Search Text</b>
<br /><br />
In addition to searching text, search engines will also let you search
for graphics, sounds and other kinds of files. Search engines will also
search through the latest news stories from recently released press
releases to news stories in national newspapers which is very useful if
you are looking for the absolute latest information on your search
topic. Search engines can also be used to search newsgroup postings,
online and offline events and perform services such as chat, instant
messaging and product searches for online shopping. Search engines also
provide search access to databases of third parties which allow you to
search through corporate reports, telephone listings, yellow pages, zip
codes and numerous other information databases.
<br /><br />
<b>InfoSeek</b>
<br /><br />
<a href="http://www.infoseek.com/">InfoSeek</a> is one of the best search
engines for finding information
In addition to searching the Web, InfoSeek provides guides to popular
subjects which contain links to recommended sites. Each main topic in
the guide is broken down further into subtopics, which contain links to
more websites. Each topic will bring up a list of popular websites for
that topic, which can be useful in getting you to a related site for
your subject area very quickly. If you run a search on InfoSeek that
relates to an InfoSeek guide you will notice that it pulls up a "Best
Bets" feature that contains different categories related to your search.
As
mentioned above, these guides can get you to a website quickly
without having to try out results from your search. The
guides can also be accessed directly from the homepage of InfoSeek --
where it says "tune into our channels."
<br /><br />
When running a search on InfoSeek there are a couple things you can do
to enhance your results. First, you can search within the given results
to further limit the information returned by the search. Simply enter an
additional keyword or keywords and click on the "search within these
results" box. InfoSeek also groups all of your results that occur in
the same website. You will notice when this happens, because it will say
under the website description "grouped results from" and the domain
name of that website. You can click on the group results link to find
more related pages on that particular website or you can click on
"ungroup these results" to show every single page that matches your
results, regardless of whether they occur in the same website.
Ungrouping results can be useful if a particular website has many, many
pages on your subject and you are looking for information that may be
found on only a single page within that website. Searches
can be further limited by using the advanced search, reachable by
following the
advanced search link on InfoSeek.
<br /><br />
Searching for news stories is also available on InfoSeek. You can search
through recent Reuters, PR Newswire and Businesswire releases or
through news stories from major newspapers. InfoSeek will also search
through company profiles, newsgroups, email
addresses, phone numbers and stocks.
In addition to searching, you can also reference information such as
maps,
Roget's thesaurus and Webster's dictionary. These additional
tools can be found on the menu bar located at the top of InfoSeek.
<br /><br />
<b>Excite/Webcrawler</b>
<br /><br />
<a href="http://www.excite.com/">Excite</a> provides a search engine that
will crunch through webpages, and also provides
searches of recent news stories, site reviews, a shopping guide and
more. In a similar
way to InfoSeek, if you are looking for well-developed and established
sites for a particular subject you may want to visit the reviewed sites
first. Site reviews on Excite can also be found on <a href="http://www.webcrawler.com/">Webcrawler</a>, but in a different layout.
If you are only interested in the reviews you might find Webcrawler's set-up more convenient.
<br /><br />
If you are looking for something very specific, then search the Web
through Excite's search engine. Excite also provides searching of
recent news stories. For later
reference you can store your search keywords on Excite so you can re-run
the same search another time. Be sure click on the "search tips" link
to get additional search ideas and to find out additional ways to search
Excite. Excite's "Power Search" will allow
you to further limit your search. It allows you to select words that
your search must NOT
contain in addition to the words the search MUST contain. It also
allows you to search only through websites that Excite recommends, to
bring up only titles in your results
(and not the description) and to show the results by the website's main
URL.
Excite also allows you to personalize Excite, under the "My Excite"
section, which allows you to store your favorite websites, different
kinds of news information, weather and other content for quick access.
<br /><br />
<b>Lycos</b>
<br /><br />
<a href="http://www.lycos.com/">Lycos</a> is another major search engine that is also becoming more of a media
site, similar to Excite, Yahoo and InfoSeek. The main web search on Lycos uses
a technology called WiseWire which brings up particular pages that
pertain to your query and allows users to rate these pages at the same time.
These "community guides" will often include some useful sites that you may
not have found elsewhere. With Lycos you can also add more options to your
search. By clicking on search features or by going to <a href="http://www.lycos.com/search/">www.lycos.com/search/</a> you
will also find the option of searching within a specific website. For instance,
you could search only within the USA Today website by entering www.usatoday.com
and then entering your keyword(s).
<br /><br />
Lycos also has an advanced search option,
dubbed "Lycos Pro." In addition to the options mentioned above,
Lycos Pro allows you to rank the importance of different criteria
pertaining to your search results including: how close together your
keywords should be,
how much the results need to match all of your keywords, how important
is it for the keywords be part of the title of the webpage and whether
the keywords need to appear in the exact order as you entered them in
the search box. For each
criteria you can select a low, medium or high measure of importance.
<br /><br />
The help section on Lycos is detailed and includes screenshots that help
you understand what each type of search can do.
Lycos will also search for images, sounds and products
and search through Usenet postings, message boards, and personal
homepages. Lycos also provides web reviews, through its "Top 5% of the
Web" service.
<br /><br />
<b>Look Smart</b>
<br /><br />
<a href="http://www.looksmart.com/">Look Smart</a> is not a search engine
in that it does not physically search through websites. Instead, Look
Smart reviews a great number of websites and this database of website
reviews is searchable on Look Smart. If you are looking for a website
on a general subject, you should consider a search Look Smart first. In
addition to searching the reviews, you can also click on the main
topics (located on the left bar on Look Smart's homepage) which will dig
you deeper into that topic and bring up more options. Clicking on these
options will allow you to refine your search into more specific
categories.
Look Smart provides a quick and effective way to find websites quickly.
However, if you are searching for a very specific topic, you might start
with one of the
search engines instead.
<br /><br />
<b>Yahoo</b>
<br /><br />
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com/">Yahoo</a> is fast becoming a major media
leader. As a search site it functions as
a huge directory, which when searched will pull up links to some major
and some minor sites related to your search. Searching Yahoo can be
either useful or invaluable, depending on your subject field. If Yahoo
cannot pull up the information you need, the keyword(s) you entered are
run on
AltaVista's search engine. One drawback to searching on Yahoo is it
will
often bring up unsignificant webpages related to your topic, such as
personal
homepages or outdated websites in addition to the more serious or
commercial
website(s) on your topic. By clicking on the options link next to
Yahoo!'s search box
you will get to an additional search page where you can limit your
search
to only the most recent additions to Yahoo -- as recent as within the
last day or week.
You can also browse through the listings in Yahoo by category from
Yahoo's front page.
<br /><br />
Yahoo also provides searchable news stories culled from various
major sources. News comes to Yahoo from Reuters, E! Online,
Variety, The Sporting News, ZDNet and others. Yahoo also provides
product searches for online shopping, web reviews, stocks, maps, phone
numbers and email addresses. If you are looking for news of new
websites, Yahoo provides daily picks and an internet magazine called
Yahoo Internet Life. Yahoo also provides online diversions in the way
of message boards, chat, email addresses and instant messaging (Yahoo
pager).
<br /><br />
<b>AltaVista</b>
<br /><br />
<a href="http://www.altavista.digital.com/">AltaVista</a> is a great
search engine if you are trying to pull up a large number
of webpages relating to your search. AltaVista is also used by Yahoo
when
Yahoo's database is unable to match your search. AltaVista is most
effective
when you are involved in a very specific search or when
when you are searching for recently added or updated webpages. You can
search for new pages on your subject by changing the date on the search
box to a recent date. Simply
change the date from the date which reads 21/Mar/86 (the default date)
to a more recent date and AltaVista will only search webpages posted
since the date you select.
<br /><br />
AltaVista can also perform a variety of
search options you will not be aware of unless you click through
to AltaVista's help menu. These additional options include: search only
the text found in a hyperlink, find pages that contain a particular
applet class, search pages with a particular domain name suffix (such as
.com, .edu or .de), search pages on
a specific website (i.e. usatoday.com), find images, find pages that
link to a particular
website, search through the text found only on the title of webpages and
search for text on webpages but do not include the text in found in a
link, image or title of the page.
AltaVista also includes a number of specialty options for use when
searching
newsgroups, which are also explained on the help menu.
<br /><br />
AltaVista works best when you want a large number of results, have a
very specific topic or you want to search only recently posted webpages.
It is not as useful if you are
seeking a website on a general subject because AltaVista will bring up
more results than you will want, including many inappropriate listings.
<br /><br />
<b>HotBot</b>
<br /><br />
<a href="http://www.hotbot.com/">HotBot</a> is also an excellent search engine when you are interested in a large
number of results and you are searching a specific subject. HotBot also
provides browsing by subject through website reviews and has licensed reviews
from Look Smart for this option. HotBot has an excellent
search tool, entitled SuperSearch that will allow you to restrict your web search
by the date, by the domain suffix (i.e. .com, .net), by continent and by media type
such as audio or video. You can also restrict your search to a particular domain
which can be useful if you are looking for information within a particular
website.
<br /><br />
HotBot also provides searching through recent news stories with its news
search service entitled Newsbot. HotBot also contains searches for businesses,
people, newsgroups, domain names, discussion groups and shareware.
<br /><br />
<b>Different Places for Different Searches</b>
<br /><br />
There is no perfect place or "all-in-one" search engine to do all your
internet searching, because different search engines and directories
will give different results. However, certain search engines do provide
better results for certain searches. If you are searching for a
general subject matter, try InfoSeek's guides or search through the
reviews on Look Smart. If you are searching for something where you
want to maximize the number of results try using AltaVista or HotBot.
Remember to use quotes around your subject when appropriate, especially
if you are searching for a person's name such as Abraham Lincoln (to
eliminate results that include Lincoln's whose first name is not Abraham
or results like Lincoln Town Cars, Lincoln, Nebraska and people named
Abraham whose last name is not Lincoln).
<br /><br />
For a quick reference, try
<a href="http://www.writerswrite.com/research/">
Writers Write<sup>®</sup> Research</a> which provides search
boxes to many of the search engines mentioned above. Another useful
page that contains links to
numerous search engines can be found at:
<a href="http://www.howtoweb.com/search/">http://www.howtoweb.com/search/</a>.
Most importantly, spend some time getting used to the different search
engines and directories to see what they have to offer. Read the help
guides. Try out the super searches or advanced search tools. You might
be surprised at just how easy it is to find the information you want.

Web sources: http://www.seomoz.org/beginners-guide-to-seo/how-people-interact-with-search-engines </div>
<div class="callout">
<br /></div>
<div class="callout">
One of the most important elements to building an
online marketing strategy around SEO is empathy for your audience.
Once you grasp what the average searcher, and more specifically, your
target market, is looking for, you can more effectively reach and keep
those users.</div>
<img _cdn="true" alt="Robot Evolution" id="robot-evolution" src="http://cdn.seomoz.org/img/beginners/robot-evolution.png" /><br />
We like to say <strong>"Build for users, not search engines."</strong>
When users have a bad experience at your site, when they can't
accomplish a task or find what they were looking for, this often
correlates with poor search engine performance. On the other hand, when
users are happy with your website, a positive experience is created,
both with the search engine and the site providing the information or
result. <br />
What are users looking for? There are three types of search queries users generally perform:<br />
<ul>
<li><strong>"Do"</strong> Transactional Queries - Action queries such as buy a plane ticket or listen to a song.</li>
<li><strong>"Know"</strong> Informational Queries - When a user seeks information, such as the name of the band or the best restaurant in New York City.</li>
<li><strong>"Go"</strong> Navigation Queries - Search queries that seek a particular online destination, such as Facebook or the homepage of the NFL.</li>
</ul>
When visitors type a query into a search box and land on your site,
will they be satisfied with what they find? This is the primary question
search engines try to figure out millions of times per day. <strong>The search engines' primary responsibility is to serve relevant results to their users.</strong> <br />
It all starts with the words typed into a small box.</div>

Using Search Engines to Find Information on the Web</h1>
<h2>
Search Engines</h2>
Search engines on the World Wide Web are remotely accessible programs
that let you do keyword searches for information on the Internet. There
are several types of search engines and searches may cover titles of
documents, URL's, headers, or full text. Keep in mind that the results
you get from one search engine may not match the results you get from
another search engine. In fact, they are often different due to the way
each search engine behaves. Therefore, it may actually be beneficial to
use more than one search engine on a regular basis.<br />
In this section, we briefly look at Google and Yahoo!. Web pages are
often dynamic and can change at any time. As a result, you may find that
if either site changes, your experience with JAWS may be different than
what is described here.<br />
<h2>
Google</h2>
<div class="exercise">
<strong>EXERCISE:</strong> Use the link below to go to the Google Web site and follow along with the instructions.</div>
When you first go to the <a href="http://www.google.com/" target="blank">Google Web site</a> there is a blinking cursor in an edit box where you can type the word or phrase that you are interested in.<br />
Google Instant is a search enhancement that shows results as you
type. It is designed to predict a person's search by updating the page
and showing results while you type. It is a time-saving feature.
However, because the page is changing as you type this can sometimes
cause problems for screen reader users. You may find a link on the page
that reads "Screen reader users, click here to turn off Google Instant."
If you choose this link it makes your searches using a screen reader
much easier.<br />
To change your preferences for Google you can do the following:<br />
<ol>
<li>Press <strong>INSERT+F7</strong> to open the JAWS list of links.</li>
<li>Choose the link <strong>Options</strong>, and then press <strong>ENTER</strong>. A links submenu opens on the Google site.</li>
<li>Press <strong>DOWN ARROW</strong> to move to the link <strong>Search Settings</strong>, and then press <strong>ENTER</strong>.</li>
<li>Beneath the heading Google Instant predictions is an On/Off slider
bar. At the time of this writing it does not read well with JAWS. Press <strong>ENTER</strong> on it to go into forms mode.</li>
<li>Press <strong>DOWN ARROW</strong> on this slider bar to turn the feature off.</li>
<li>Press <strong>NUM PAD PLUS</strong> to get out of forms mode.</li>
<li>Press <strong>B</strong> to move to the Save button at the bottom of the page, and then activate it by pressing <strong>ENTER</strong>.</li>
</ol>
To begin searching, for users of JAWS prior to version 10.0, the first thing you need to do is press the <strong>ENTER</strong> key to go into Forms Mode with JAWS. Once you are in Forms Mode, you can then type in keywords that will define your search.<br />
If you are using JAWS 10.0 or later, forms mode comes on
automatically when you get to a Web page which has the focus set to a
blinking cursor in an edit box. If for some reason forms mode does not
come on automatically on your computer, you can also press <strong>ENTER</strong> to go into forms mode, or you can press <strong>INSERT+F5</strong> to open the Select a Form Field dialog box for JAWS.<br />
<div class="tipm">
<strong>MAGic Tip:</strong> MAGic users, just click into any edit box and forms mode comes on automatically for you.</div>
<div class="tipJ">
<strong>JAWS Tip:</strong> New since JAWS 10, JAWS users who use a mouse can also click into edit boxes and forms mode comes on automatically.</div>
After you have typed in some text, press <strong>ENTER</strong> to activate the Search button.<br />
Google only returns Web pages that contain all of the words in your
query. If you find that you get too many "hits" or Web pages that match
your search, you can enter more words in your search query to narrow the
choices.<br />
Using good keywords gives you better results. Be as specific as you
can. For example, a search for the keyword "musicians" will yield far
more results than a search for the keywords "Elvis Presley." You do not
need to include "and" between terms, but the order in which you type
your keywords will affect the search results. You can also search for a
specific phrase by including words in quotation marks. Google searches
are not case sensitive.<br />
You can also use the following items within your keywords for Google searches:
<br />
<ul>
<li>- (minus) sign. Causes Google to exclude a word from your search.
For example, "JAWS" can refer to a screen reading software or a famous
movie. You can exclude many of the movie-related hits by searching for
"JAWS -movie." (Be sure to include a space before the minus sign and no
spaces between the minus sign and the word "movie.") Searches for JAWS
with different conditions yielded the following results:</li>
<ul>
<li>JAWS, about 50,600,000 hits</li>
<li>JAWS windows -movie, about 8,600,000 hits</li>
<li>"JAWS screen reader" (in quotes) about 62,000 </li>
</ul>
</ul>
As you narrow your search and use better keywords, you get more relevant results.<br />
<ul>
<li>Putting a phrase into quotes tells Google to look for the exact words in that exact order.</li>
<li>You can search for something within a specific website by typing the word or phrase followed by <strong>site:FreedomScientific.com</strong> (where the dot com changes to whatever site you are searching.</li>
</ul>
The <strong>I'm Feeling Lucky™</strong> button takes you directly to
the first Web page Google returned for your query. You will not see the
other search results at all. For example, to find the home page for
Stanford University, simply enter "Stanford" into the search box and
choose the <strong>I'm Feeling Lucky™</strong> button. Google takes you directly to www.stanford.edu, the official home page of Stanford University.<br />
Try typing different things such as names, phone numbers, and more to find people or things.
<br />
Try a search for Freedom Scientific. <a href="http://www.google.com/" target="search"> Use this link to go to the Google Web site</a>. On the results page, there are a couple of things you can do to get more information about the results of the search:<br />
<ul>
<li>The statistics of your search are typically placed between the search edit box and the search results. You can press <strong>DOWN ARROW</strong> a few times to find this line, or you can use the JAWS find command <strong>CTRL+F</strong>
to look for the word "Results," and then read that line. For example,
when testing this, the search found, "About 86,400,000 for freedom
scientific. (0.22 seconds)." This can be useful if you need to narrow
the search.</li>
<li><span class="highlightYellow">Google uses a "main" ARIA landmark to guide you to the search results.</span> You can press <strong>SEMICOLON</strong> to move from one ARIA landmark to another.</li>
<li>The items found as a result of your search are placed on the page
as both links and headings. You can press the navigation quick key <strong>H</strong> to move quickly among the headings that match your search. Since they are also links, you can press <strong>ENTER</strong> to activate them and move to those Web pages of interest.</li>
<li>Below each heading (and link) that match your search is a short synopsis of what that page is about. After pressing <strong>H</strong> to move to a heading (link), just press <strong>DOWN ARROW</strong> to read the text below it for more information.</li>
<li>Remember, you can also press <strong>SHIFT+H</strong> to move backwards.</li>
<li>There is also a good structure to the headings. The heading level
one on the page is the Google logo and link that will take you back to
the main Google page. The search results begin to be listed after a
heading level two. The matches found for the search are all level three
headings.</li>
</ul>
<div class="exercise">
<strong>EXERCISE:</strong> Google now uses ARIA landmarks to make navigation easier. Explore them by pressing <strong>SEMICOLON</strong> to move from landmark to landmark, and then press <strong>DOWN ARROW</strong> to move into the next section.</div>
You can also read through the search results page using normal reading keys or use <strong>INSERT+F7</strong> to open the list of links and see what related links were found. Use the <strong>Move to Link</strong> button in the links list <strong>ALT+M</strong>)
to move to a particular link and then down arrow through the associated
text to find out if this might be what you are looking for.<br />
In addition to the information displayed on the initial results page,
there are often links to more pages of information that meet your
search criteria. These pages are reached by activating the link for the
number of the page. Usually you will find links for additional pages 2
through 10 near the bottom of each page. Each page beyond the first page
also contains a number of items that match your search.<br />
<div class="note">
<strong>NOTE:</strong> Look for an ARIA landmark called <span class="highlightYellow">"content info region start"</span> to move to these links quickly.</div>
<h3>
Google Search Tools</h3>
Google also provides easy-to-use search tools. For example:<br />
<ul>
<li>"Weather Chicago" yields the current weather in Chicago</li>
<li>"25 kilometers in miles" converts kilometers to miles</li>
<li>"Define screen magnification" yields definitions for screen magnification</li>
<li>"Seafood restaurants 33716" yields restaurants that serve seafood in or near that zip code</li>
<li>And so on...</li>
</ul>
<div class="note">
<strong>NOTE:</strong> For both the Google Web site and
the Yahoo! Web site discussed in the next section, be sure to check out
the other links on their sites for Advanced Search, Help topics, and
more.</div>
<h2>
Yahoo!.com</h2>
Yahoo! is another search engine that many people use. The main Yahoo!
page also has more information on it, such as sports and news
headlines, entertainment links, and links to many other items. This
tends to cause the page to appear more cluttered than the Google site,
but may prove itself useful to you as well. As with Google, when you
first go to the <a href="http://www.yahoo.com/" target="search">Yahoo! Web site</a> there is a blinking cursor in an edit box.<br />
For users of JAWS prior to version 10.0, the first thing you need to do is press the <strong>ENTER</strong> key to go into Forms Mode with JAWS. Once you are in Forms Mode, you can then type in keywords that will define your search.<br />
If you are using JAWS 10.0 or later, forms mode comes on
automatically when you get to a Web page which has the focus set to a
blinking cursor in an edit box. If for some reason forms mode does not
come on automatically on your computer, you can also press <strong>ENTER</strong> to go into forms mode, or you can press <strong>INSERT+F5</strong> to open the Select a Form Field dialog box for JAWS.<br />
<div class="tipm">
<strong>MAGic Tip:</strong> MAGic users, just click into any edit box, and forms mode comes on automatically for you.</div>
<div class="tipJ">
<strong>JAWS Tip:</strong> New since JAWS 10, JAWS users who use a mouse can also click into edit boxes and forms mode comes on automatically.</div>
After you have typed in some text, press <strong>ENTER</strong> to activate the Search button.<br />
Yahoo! behaves very much the same way as Google and displays a list
of hits of matching items. These are links to further resources, and
each link here also has a text description taken from that source that
matches your query.<br />
After a Yahoo! results page loads, press the letter <strong>H</strong>
to move to the different headings on the page. Below the heading Search
Results, you find the main links that match your search. Each contains a
short text synopsis below it and a link for a cached version. Since the
headings are also links, pressing <strong>ENTER</strong> on one takes
you to the Web page indicated. Beneath each heading/link is text that
describes a little bit about that page. Press <strong>INSERT+F7</strong> to use the list of links to explore the links, or you can also press <strong>TAB</strong> to move from one link to another.<br />
<div class="note">
<strong>NOTE:</strong> Yahoo now also uses ARIA landmarks on search results pages. <span class="highlightYellow">Look for the "main" region landmark to guide you directly to the search results area.</span></div>
To find the number of matches, use the JAWS Find and look for the
word "results" without the quotes. You should hear something like the
following: "50,300,911 results."<br />
Yahoo! also has links to other results pages, just as Google does. These links
show as numbers 2 through 10 and are located near the bottom of the page.<br />
<h2>
Going Beyond the Search Engine Results Page</h2>
OK, so what happens when you choose one of the links you find on a
search engine page? What strategies do you use to find the information
you were initially searching for on the resulting page?<br />
<strong>ANSWER:</strong> All of the strategies you learned in this series of Surf's Up lessons, including:<br />
<ul>
<li>Use <strong>N</strong> to jump past a series of links to move to the next block of text that has at least 25 characters without a link.</li>
<li>Use the list of links (<strong>INSERT+F7</strong>) to look for links that begin with specific words.</li>
<li>Use the list of headings (<strong>INSERT+F6</strong>) to look for structure in the headings on a page.</li>
<li>Use the JAWS Find to search for words or phrases on a Web page.</li>
<li>Look for ARIA landmarks.</li>
<li>Use the Adjust JAWS Options list to change things as needed such as:</li>
<ul>
<li>Stop page refreshes</li>
<li>Search for <title> attributes, acronyms, abbreviations, and more.</li>
</ul>
<li>Use the Custom Label feature of JAWS to label unlabeled links or unlabeled form fields on pages that you visit often.</li>
</ul>

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. Keseimbangan(proportionality): kebaikan yang dibawa oleh teknologi maklumat mesti lebih baik daripada risiko dan keburukan.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
2. keizinan termaklum (informed consent): mereka yang menerima kesan teknologi maklumat mesti faham dan menerima risiko yang akan dihadapi.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
3. Keadilan (justice): manfaat dan keburukan terknologi maklumat mesti diagih secara adil. Mereka yang menerima kebaikan patut menanggung sama risiko dan kepada yang tidak menerima kebaikan tidak patut menanggung risiko yang lebih.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
4. Meminimumkan risiko (minimised risk): Jika ketiga-tiga panduan (keseimbangan, keizinan termaklum dan keadilan) diterima, teknologi maklumat mesti dilaksanakan dengan mengelak risiko yang tidak berkaitan.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Banyak risiko etika yang mungkin timbul apabila melaksanakan teknologi maklumat yang mengakibat salah maklumat, melanggar keperibadian dan pencemaran persekitaran.Antara risiko tersebut adalah;</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
1. Bagaimana tindakan undang-undang boleh diambil/dikenakan.</div>
<div>
2. Bagaimana kemungkinan ancaman lain berlaku yang mungkin disebabkan oleh melanggar peribadi.</div>
<div>

<span style="color: red;">Kita telah lihat bagaimana teknologi maklumat telah membantu orang-orang istimewa. </span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Kita telah dengar dan baca teknologi maklumat telah meningkatkan keuntungan syarikat dan perniaagan.</span><br />
<span style="color: red;">Kita juga telah mengetahui akibat virus komputer seperti virus Love Bug dan Chernobyl yang telah merosakkan sistem komputer banyak organisasi dan juga perseorangan.</span><br />
<br />
persoalanya, apakah tujuan dan prinsip utama Teknologi maklumat?<br />
Tujuan utama teknologi maklumat ialah memberikan bantuan kepada manusia untuk menyelesaikan masalah,untuk mencetuskan kreativiti, untuk menjadikan manusia lebih berkesan dibandingkan tanpa menggunakan teknologi maklumat dalam aktivitinya.<br />
teknologi maklumat boleh melepaskan manusia daripada belenggu kerja rutindan menumpukan kepada meneylesaikan masalah dan merapatkan hubungan ataupun ukhuwah antara manusia dan yang teramat penting hubungan manusia dengan Penciptanya<br />
<br />
<br />
Prinsip utama teknologi maklumat ialah<br />
Prinsip teknologi-tinggi-sentuhan-tinggi (High-tech-high-tech) iaitu semakin banyak bergantung kepada teknologi termaju, semakin penting kita menimbangkan aspek sentuhan-tinggi(high-touch) iaitu "manusia". Prinsip ini menekan yang kita sepatutnya menyesuaikan teknologi maklumat kepada manusia, daripada meminta manusia menyesuaikan dengan teknologi maklumat<br />

The Samsung Galaxy Note II<strong style="background-color: transparent; border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"> </strong>is arguably the biggest star of the IFA 2012 and many were wondering if the second-gen phoneblet will actually be worth the hype. And what better way to see if the Note II delivers than to compare it to the Galaxy S III best-seller.<br />The Galaxy Note II has undergone a complete redesign, and now looks like a proper bigger brother of the Galaxy S III. But is the bigger screen, the S Pen and Android 4.1 Jelly Bean be enough for the Galaxy Note II to steal the show from the company’s current Android flagship ?</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Artikel
juga menyatakan penubuhan sesebuah syarikat tidaklah hanya usahawan yang
mempunyai idea dan pembentangan idea kepada golongan pelabur diikuti dengan
pelancaran dan kejayaan sepenuhnya. Apabila melihat dari dasar, proses sebegini
memerlukan sumber kewangan yang banyak.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Artikel
menjelaskan seseorang usahawan tidak memerlukan idea drastik dalam memulakan
sesebuah syarikat. Hal ini sebab kebanyakan syarikat yang berjaya sekarang
biasanya mula kerana ingin berkerja bersama rakan-rakan dan bukan sahaja
memandangkan keuntungan atau mandapat wang yang banyak. Contoh dalamartikel ini
ialah Hewlett-Packed(HP), twitter dan sebaginya. Idea-idea yang baik akan
dijumpai dengan usaha yang berterusan dan mengkaji lebih seperti apa yang
pengguna ingin serta perlukan. Idea-idea yang mencukupi akan menyumbang kepada
kejayaan sebuah syarikat pada masa hadapan.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Artikel
menceritakan bahawa kerajaan tidak menjadi faktor yang tegas dalam usaha
penubuhan syarikat. Kerajaan tidak kelihatan begitu membantu dalam usaha
menjayakan syarikat walaupun adanya Institusi Industri Kecil dan Sederhana.
Peranan kerajaan lebih kepada menyediakan alat-alat yang diperlukan oleh
syarikat. Oleh itu, peranannya dalam menyediakan usahawan dalam menjayakan
syarikat telah diabaikan.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Kerajaan
juga akan mempengaruhi sesebuah syarikat dari carta organisasi mahupun urusan
sesebuah syarikat baru. Keadaan ini kerana wujudnya batas ataupun campur tangan
dari pihak kerajaan atas keputusan sesebuah syarikat.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Artikel
menunjukkan fenomena sikap pelabur yang ingin menguasai sesebuah syarikat
selepas melabur dalam syarikat. Pelabur-pelabur sebegini ingin dihormati dan
memikirkan bahawa mereka membantu dalam proses penubuhan syarikat.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div align="left" class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 18.4pt; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">Pada
hakikatnya, keadaan sebeginilah yang menyebabkan runtuhnya syarikat berasakaan
dua syarat iaitu apabila syarikat memerukan tambahan model,pelabur baru

mencadangkan bahawa keadaan yang baik ialah dimana kerajaan mengelakkan dalam
menentukan syarikat mana yang akan berjaya pada peringkat awal. Pihak pelabur
pula megelakkan daripada bersifat campur tangan usahawan dalam urusan penubuhan
syrikat manakala usahawan itu sendiri harus mengelakkan daripada memulakan
syarikat dengan idea-idea menarik.</span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 11pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

if we learn that "sediakan payung sebelum hujan"<br />
hehe..<br />
<br />
In nowadays..There have many modern ways to store our data easily without paying any single sen..<br />
For example we can use online storage such as dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft SkyDrive and so on.<br />
<br />
Other than that, we can send the important file or document into our own email..<br />
so when we need it, we can downloads it through online..<br />
<br />
Not only that bah..<br />
If u have an email, u may create a blog that can store in all your picture or video..<br />
Just in case that our own laptop lose the picture that have memory to us..<br />
<br />
<br />
For myself, i am using SkyDrive..i uploads the picture that means a lot to me..<br />
further more..after heard abah lecture..<br />
i using it more wisely..recently have uploads some assignment to avoid the case that lose the document..<br />
<br />
As i mention above..Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft SkyDrive..<br />
This three are free to use..but sure..it got limit, if wanna add on we gonna pay for it..<br />
But as a student, i think is enough for us to use..<br />
<br />
SkyDrive gives users a generous 7GB for users that can store online with free.<br />
Google drive gives 5GB of free storage for new users..<br />
Then Dropbox give the users smallest amount of free storage compare with other, that is 3GB only.<br />
<br />

3 of it have total 14GB..i think is enough for us to use it wisely..<br />
And if we really need extra, we can add on the storage by paying..<br />
At some of the time, they will have discount for it..<br />
There are sometime special promotions where we can get additional storage for free on some limited time only. It's hard to predict when the promotion will happen, so for those who wish to buy extra storage, you may doing a web search before pay to add on storage.<br />
<br />
<br />
As my own opinion..<br />
With the advance of the technology in nowadays..<br />
and we have such a advance handphone that can be help and save a lot of time..<br />
then we should use it wisely..<br />
We should not just using the technology for fun or entertainment only..<br />
