Exploration
//(Laptop and/or iMac bookings needed for this)// =It is important to remember that what is posted to the web remains on the web.= 1. Try finding yourself in Google. 2. Try finding a friend. 3. Now try it using WINK and Pipl, people search tools.

==Try using the[| Wayback Machine] to track the changes in various websites over the year.==

1. Type in [|www.abc.edu.sv], then click on April 28 1998. Take a look at some of the photos in the Image Galleries. Try [|Jul 11, 2000] (you must click on the centre of the box where the icon was originally) and check out the image gallery links. Try events. Do you recognise any of these students? Try some of the other dates, notice that some of them are incomplete. They are not indexed. 2. Now type in www.jenniferlopez.com. Look at how the website has changed form 2001 up to the most recent date.

===If you get a chance, look at the Official Harry Potter Website through the Wayback Machine and note the differences and try searching out some other popular websites using the Wayback Machine. Observe how they have changed. Information that was once posted is still available if it was indexed by web crawler.===
 * What did you notice in both cases about the websites?**
