Some Internet Info
This information was created for a combined Relief Society, Priesthood, and Youth meeting in my ward. My intention was to highlight some notable sites and opportunities in order to pique the interest of the audience to explore more of how they might use and contribute to the Internet.
Below you will find links to all of the resources mentioned in the meeting. At the bottom of this page you'll find some additional resources that were not covered in the meeting. For those new to some of the topics we discussed, I highly recommend the "...in Plain English" videos. They explain some of the concepts like Blogs and RSS in plain English language. The slide deck I used in the meeting is also available here. Oh, and for Sister Hunt, here's a definition for DNS. :)

Internet filtering is the basic seat belt for the Internet. Just as everyone uses a seat belt when riding in a car, everyone should use Internet filters when using the Internet. |
