End User's Corner

End Users Corner is a column in each monthly issue of InterNIC News, the Web and email publication produced by InterNIC Information and Education Services. The column is currently written by Jack Solock, Internet Librarian at Internet Scout, and other Internet Scout staff members will be contributing in the future.

Monthly articles are focussed on how to use the Internet smarter -- Surf Smarter -- as we like to say. Past topics have included a close look at the major Internet search indexes, the major Internet subject directories, and basic advice on Web publishing.

The End Users Corner column has already inspired another new Net Scout service, called Sidekicks. Designed for quick reference, Sidekicks offer a simplified overview of all the search operatives allowed by the major Internet search engines. Sidekicks can be used online or printed and attached to the side of your monitor for easy viewing.
