Just like a bookmark you might place in a book, a browser bookmark (or Favorite in Internet Explorer) marks your
place on the web so you can quickly find it again later on. Bookmarks can be a great way to create shortcuts to websites you frequent as well as remember the address of sites that you stumble upon that you know you would like to visit in the future.

The iPhone has an autocorrect function built in that will automatically fix the spelling of words that you might have mistyped or misspelled on your own.

Facebook is quickly becoming how many people, particularly young adults, communicate with one another. The site allows you to keep friends up to date on what you’ve been up to, show off pictures you’ve taken, or invite people to an event, as well as comment on what your friends are saying and doing too. Originally developed as a way for college students to communicate with classmates, Facebook later opened to the public. Once it did, adults flocked to the site not only to keep up with their current friends, but also to reconnect with friends and classmates from years past. Come see how simple it is to get started!

eBay is a popular online auction site where you can purchase anything from a car to a pair of pants. Just like traditional auctions you may have been to, each item starts at a set price, and then bidders have the opportunity to place higher bids for the item.

sell or if you’re in the market for something new, then eBay may potentially be a good place for you to do so.

I love this tip! I have a background from one of our favorite vacations and my screen saver is a slide show from the same vacation. What will be your computer background and screen saver?

In addition to serving as a background for your computer screen, a screen saver can add a little personality to your desktop when you walk away, as well as help you save electricity and prevent damage to your screen from leaving it on while you’re not using it.
