Can you conquer this Web search scavenger hunt? I bet you can!
Saturday August 30, 2008
September's Back to School Scavenger Hunt is all about Harry Potter and his own back to school adventures: Hogwarts, professors, school, books, and more. Test your Web search skills! Here are some more resources to help you out:
- Top 10 Web Search Tricks: There are Web search techniques that I use every day in order to find what I'm looking for. While this is by no means an exhaustive list, I've put together just a few of the Web search tricks that I use to search more of the Web.
- Pick a Search Engine: With one hundred different search engines to choose from, you're sure to find one that works for you.
- Seven Habits of Highly Successful Searchers: Every time I need to find something on the Web, I am successful. Right? Uh, not exactly. Eventually, I get to where I'm going, but it takes some work sometimes. Over the years I've developed a few search habits that have made me a more effective searcher, and with just a little practice, you can too. After all, searching the Web is a snap - it's actually finding what we're looking for that's the trick!
100%! And not a single web search to find the answers. (It defeats the object, I know) I guess I’m just too much of a HP fan. Congratulations on putting together a great quiz, though! There were enough questions in there that most people would have to search for – it wasn’t the usual this-is-a-quiz-for-people-who’ve-only-seen-the-movies quiz. Thankfully.
