Mosaic Starting Points
Alan Levine, MCLI
There is no single, comprehensive index of the Internet. However,
several sites have organized indices arranged by subject. Following
are two examples which show two different ways to connect to an
Internet site:
- using Mosaic's pull-down menus;
- directly entering the Internet address.
WWW Virtual Library
One way to begin exploring is to access the World
Wide Web (WWW) Virtual Library, a subject-oriented index of
information. This figure shows only a few of the many categories of
information.
To access the WWW Virtual Library:
- Macintosh: From the Navigate menu, select
Internet Resources Meta-Index.
Windows: From the Starting Points menu, select
Information by Subject under World Wide Web Info.
- Under the category, World Wide Web, click on the underlined text,
WWW Virtual Library, which will bring you this screen.
Whole Internet Catalog
Another excellent starting point is the Whole
Internet Catalog.
To access it, for both Mac and Windows versions of Mosaic:
- From the File menu, select Open URL...
- In the dialog box, enter the address:
http://gnn.digital.com/gnn/wic/newrescat.toc.html
- Click the OK button.
Here are some other useful starting points:
