... Which Browser is Best: Determining the Benefits to Each Browser The purpose of this research paper is to take the reviews from users to help highlight both the positives as well as the negatives of the top four widely used Internet browsers, which will ultimately help determine which browser is the best available for consumers to use. The purpose of this study is to determine which browser is the best out of the four, and to highlight the best features from each browser, and determine their significance on how each feature is. The significance of the study is to analyze the information given on each browser and translate it into information that Internet users can take away to help them determine which browser is the best one for them between Internet Explorer, Safari, Firefox, and Chrome. The Internet has become more readily available across the globe which has caused many software developers to create their own Internet browser. In the past couple of years there has been a flood of Internet browsers available for use (Bidgoli, 2009). When the Internet was only available in select countries there was only a select number of browsers that a user could use to access the Internet. The Internet is only going to become available to more people which will most likely bring more Internet browsers to the market. There are currently millions of users that are accessing the Internet daily and each browser developer is fighting for their share of users in an effort to prevent...

...Arturo G Pizarro GEN105 Week 3 Analyzing Internet Sources 1) What are the three or more best practices you learned about using the Internet for Academic Purposes? How do you think you might use them? Using the internet for academic research is different to using it for leisure and pleasure. Making best use of search engines help you identify information on a particular subject. One of the common search engines is Google, which, personally, helps me a lot when I need to find something on the internet. Also, I think using Gateways can help you, because they are good sources of quality-checked resources, which have been selected carefully from many websites sorted into specific subjects. Finally, using the information in a well manner, because when you use sources of information, books, articles, and internet sources; all that needs to be acknowledge by citing the work. 2) How can you determine if the information on a website is reputable and worthwhile for a research paper? Anyone can put anything on the internet. Whenever you need to verify for the information that you are trying to investigate, many things need to be checked, like if the information is out of date, or if it is distorted, or simply untrue. So when you find what you are looking for, it is always good to consider who wrote it, or the credentials, or who is this written for. A key of confirming that the information is accurate, up-to-date, reliable, and appropriate is to check this information...

...Ochola Eng-101 B 65 18 Sept 14 Using the Internet for Research Can Be Easy In the past, I used print resources for researching because they were the only means available to conduct research. Computers and the internet was a technology that was not available for individuals. The Public Library was my main source of obtaining research. With the advent to the internet and personal computers, that has changed. Although still useful, I have noticed libraries have a tendency to have out of date material, or pending on the size, no material at all. Some items may be already checked out and are unavailable making researching more taxing. With the internet, I have everything at my fingertips just a few keystrokes away. There is a large drawback to using the internet for researching, but it can be limited to a manageable level. Although with some pitfalls, I believe the internet has become the best available avenue for research and can be accomplished easily. Online researching has become the go to outlet for researching information. I have the ability for find anything and everything I need online. Information is current and everywhere! I just need to know what I’m looking for. Although not without faults, the ability to have this vast sea of knowledge is exhilarating. Like any relationship, the internet can be a fickle partner. I have noticed I need to have a give and take attitude while researching. For every positive aspect of internet research, there may be a negative one. After gathering...

...been doing thorough research to get down to the bottom of the problem, and have narrowed the illness down to a possible improper chemical disposal at a nearby company. We are doing everything in our legal power to get this unfortunate matter taken care of. II. Diagnosis The first thing I would do would be to contact those residents whom I know have been contracted with the illness, and ask them questions related to, where were they at the on-set of the illness? How long have they had said symptoms? Did anyone who may have been with them get sick as well? Were they exposed to anything unusual that may have gotten them sick? I would ask many questions that could help me get to the cause of the problem. a. Symptoms Here I would keep a book and log every symptom from every person I interviewed. This would allow me to find a possible pattern in related symptoms. I would also document ages and genders of residents who got the illness, so to see if there is a difference in children versus adult symptoms. b. Medications/Vaccines After evaluating ill residents’ symptoms, I would then ask them questions about what they have done to fight the illness. What medications have they tried? Has their doctor prescribed anything? What, if anything, has helped? What hasn’t helped? This way I can recommend these options to my residents who have contracted the illness. III. Investigation This is where I would tell my residents about every type of research I have done that...

This began with point to point communication between main frame computers and terminals, expanded to point to point connections between computers and the early research into packet switching. Packed switched networks such as ARPANET, Mark I, Merit network, Tymnet and Telenet were developed in late 1960’s and early 1970’s using a variety of protocols. Until now, internet has been using and it is still on the road of innovation. Nowadays, World Wide Web is used for the students’ reference and studies. They search in the internet what they want. In just one click, thousands of answer comes out. On the other hand, few students use books as their reference. Some of them do not want to browse authentic books, hundreds of books in the library just to find the answer in their question. Instead, they just use internet to find their answer easily. Moreover, Internet is faster and efficient. You will spend hours finding the right authentic book for the answer in your question but you can also find answers in the internet with just one click.

As far as politics go, I don’t believe anything until I have done a full thorough investigation for myself to see if anything is true or just gossip.2. “How do you approach research?”First you need to know exactly what you are researching and where you would like to find the information such as the library, the courthouse, the internet. It all really depends on what you’re researching. You then need to identify what would you like your end result to be, what you would like to find and how you would deem your research successful. You then need to compare what information you already have and what else you need. You will then need to contrast and analyze your researching and what exactly you have researched.3. “What are your biggest challenges in doing research?”My biggest challenges when doing research is having like a road block, not knowing where to go next or where to possibly turn to. While some websites like wikis may be great for some purposes, they are just not all that well adapted to research. Sometimes it is also difficult to weed out what is true and false in some case.4. “What are some tips that you think will help you and others in conducting research?”· I think having a variety of options available to conduct research is a big help. Such as the internet, the library, books and newspapers.· I think also keeping everything that you have researched in an organized manner will make it easier for you go to go back to at a later time if need...

...Olusola Oyedele-23122 Reflection This course has really helped in finding research on the internet. When i was giving the topic ‘predictions for Eurozone Crisis’, i was thinking how i am going to get the materials because i do not know so much about internet research and i found that search engines on the internet are faster that researching manually. Also, this presentation has giving me a wider knowledge of European crisis which i never thought about. It makes me to have an interest in listening to news, reading newspapers,it makes to know what is happening in the UK economically even globally which i believe it is an addition to me as part of my learning activity. Despite the knowledge i acquire in this group presentation, we had problems with communications and organization. It was so hard to plan our schedules on how we meet with each other in order to discuss how to go about the coursework. We started the semester off very strong, with lots of energy and hardwork for the coursework but not much direction. Each week, instead of reporting on our coursework , we are only talking about the problems with our group and this has made us to lack behind the scheduled time. We are five in a group,it has been so hard to make in contact with the other three, i managed to get hold of one to join me to do the presentation. Although, in a little way...

Also I learned that I need to develop skills to gather information and evaluate the information for accuracy and credibility I also learned how to analyze sites for an internet search. Going forward I will be very cautious of certain sites when I’m doing research for academic purposes. When I am researching on the internet I will use my evaluating skills more. Even though I know everything on the internet is not true, after doing both activities it helped me to be more aware of what sites to use going forward. How can you determine if the information on a website is reputable and worthwhile for a research paper? I can determine if the information on a website is reputable by checking the author’s credentials. It’s also helpful to pay attention to the url of a site. Most sites that end in .gov or .mil could be a website that is reputable and worthwhile for doing a research paper. Also I can possibly use a site that ends in .edu which could also be worthwhile for a research paper. Also I can check to see if the site appears research based, or if its purpose is personal, political or research oriented. I do...
