Which is your favorite?

Thursday in class, we learned something cool. We learned how to make our own favorites page on the Internet, using PowerPoint. Anyone can do this. You just open a new PowerPoint page, and open an Internet page. Then go to your favorite sites. Find the pictures or symbols that represent the site. For example: Google. Save the picture in a new folder. Every time you go to a site and copy the picture, save it into the same folder. Then, when you open your presentation, go down to the drawing toolbar, click the 'insert picture' and from the folder you saved your images in, choose one. Once your finished inserting all your images, click on one, go up to the menu bar, insert, hyperlink and write in the address you got your image from. For example; if you clicked on the google image, insert hyperlink and in the address bar, type- http://www.google.ca/
Decorate your slide, because its going to be your Internet page. So now, every time you open Internet explorer, the page you created will be there, and you simply click on the image of the site you want to visit and your good to go!
But the only way that will work is if you save your work properly. First save it as a PowerPoint presentation, then save it as an HTML. Then when you open Internet, you can open your page easily.

See ya.
