Vocab help; Keypad work; FA8

1. Today we are going to start off with discussing some of the items that are on the vocab list for this week to help you with tomorrow's quiz.  To start with, let's see if you know what type of websites you would find with these top level domain names:

.gov?
.net?
.com?
.mil?
.edu?
.org?
.uk? 

There are two ISP's in Geneseo - who are they?  (first, figure out what an ISP is) 

Did you know you can easily find your IP Address (first of all, what is an IP Address)?   

Go to www.whatismyipaddress.com and it will tell you what the IP Address is for your internet connection. 

What's the difference between a virus and a bug (bug was a vocab word from the software list)?

2. After watching the video on cookies, you need to finish FA8 - the directions are on yesterday's blogpost.

3.  Once you finish FA8, grab the green handout that is sitting on the cart.  In this handout you will be using the Keypad again, but you will be adding the 2, 5, and 8 numbers to the others that you learned yesterday.  Type the handout in the same fashion as you did yesterday - each Drill should be typed in a column.  For example, Drill 1 should be entered in Column A; Drill 2 should be entered in Column B, and so on.

4.  If you finish, you can go to 10 Fast Fingers - when you complete your speed test post it on your blog if it is faster than your previous best.
