Bookmarking a Favorite Site

Do you turn down the corners of pages as a reminder to go back to that page? Do you use post-its to mark important sections in a book? As you follow these lessons and go to places on the Web you may want to "bookmark" special pages so that you may easily get back to that page.

For Internet Explorer:

You've come to a place that you know you will want to go back to. Add the address to your favorites  list.

• Add A Favorite: On the menu bar select Favorites, Add to Favorites.
   
• Add a Favorite to a Folder: Adding a favorite to an existing folder or creating a new one is a breeze. When doing the Add, click on the button Create In and choose an existing folder. If none apply, select New Folder.
   
• View Your Favorites: You can view your complete list by clicking on Favorites, Organize Favorites. This will open a large window in which you can see the favorites listed. You can rearrange these by dragging and dropping them into a new order.
