1) Web finding has 4 components :

1. Orientation: Where am I am right now?
2. Route decisions: Can I find the way to where I want to go?
3. Mental mapping: Are my experiences consistent and understandable enough to know where I’ve been and to predict where I should go next?
4. Closure: Can I recognize that I have arrived in the right place?

2)Every web page needs:

• An informative title (which also becomes the text of any bookmark to the page)
• The creator’s identity (author or institution)
• A creation or revision date
• A copyright statement, Creative Commons statement, or other statement of ownership to protect your intellectual property rights
• At least one link to a local home page or menu page, in a consistent location on all pages
• The home page url

3)Folder tabs are ideal when your site has relatively few major categories

1) The reason we have different types of citations is because different fields of study have different standards for how to present and document citations.

2) I knew there were different type of citation styles, but I wasn’t really familiar of AMA and Turabian format.

3) AMA format is used for medicine, health, and biological sciences. Turbian is used as a general-subject citation style.

For topic I chose second-hand smoking because that was the first thing that came to mind and also I don’t like smoking because of how bad it is for the body. The top 3 search engines I used was Google, Bing, and Yahoo Search. The 3 meta search engines I used was iBoogie, DogPile, and DuckDuckGo. For the top 3 search engines, all of them seemed to show the same search results, but in different orders. Bing doesn’t have that many ads compared to Yahoo and Google. The meta search engines had the exact search results. I would say meta search engines are different compared to the top search engines because google, bing, yahoo, etc. are more well known. All of the search engines are helpful when searching specific topics, but to narrow down to the best results, it all depends on what you type to search.
