Thing #6

For my site, I chose to do Google. Although I use it often, I only use it to look up things that I need in particular and in a hurry. I have used the maps tab before to look up directions if I were going out of town but I do not use that anymore, since I have a GPS navigator. I usually only use the images tab when I need a new style to take to show my hair dresser. One tab that I have never really paid any attention to is the more tab. When you click on more, it drops another whole list of tabs. One is called "scholar". This tab is very handy if you are looking for a scholarly article for research. It gives you all scholarly articles and I found out that if you are on campus, it has where you can click on the austin peay library link to view the full text. I think that Google is a very useful site that can help you search for just about anything that you need. I believe that the Google scholar tab would be of great use in a school setting. Although all sites on Google may not be reliabe, all of the articles searched under the "scholar" tab are. This would be of great help to students who have research projects.
