If you don't know how to copy and paste URLs

Often when I quote I will give you the URL so if you know how to copy and paste it you can go to the site easily. However, if you don't know how to do this then often the name of the article put into Google will bring up that article or similar articles so you can get more information if you want at that topic.

Some of the easiest ways to get this information would be: Google News, Yahoo News, BBC news, Bing News and many other soures. These bigger outlets often compile articles from all over the world and often you can just put in the subject you are interested in and find 20 or more articles on that subject from around the world. CNN news online or on TV is another great source. What I often will do is to DVR several hours of CNN news and fast forward until the subject I'm interested in comes up and then watch that and if it is interesting enough I report that back to you here.

Note: However, if you want to learn how to copy and paste what you need to do is to have two windows open at the same time (if you are doing this online and not to something like Word).

IF you are doing this with word you need to have one window at least open and word open instead.

So, with two windows open (if you are blogging) or if you want to paste to go to a site you first have to make sure you are in a computer mode where you can see something near the top that says: http://

then there will be stuff after that of your address in words that you are at then.

If you want to copy and past a new address for you to go to then take your mouse and hold the left click down while you start (usually at the right end of your address line) and it should be like putting a marker through your address or sentence. Then hit your space bar and your address should disappear from that line(if this freaks you out then hit the left arrow and then hit the right arrow and you likely will be back where you started).

However, if you already understand all this, you can then paste or type literally any address into the address area at near the top of your computer, then just hit "Enter" after you paste or write the new address and if you haven't made any mistakes you should soon go there.

So, now if you are in Explorer or Safari or Firefox or Google Chrome or some other Browser then in most of them (I usually use Firefox or Google Chrome) if it is available on whatever Computer I'm using because I find these two the best for Blogging but that's just me. My usual preference is Firefox even though at times there are many advantages to using Google Chrome especially if you are going through Google in whatever you are doing because they are very compatible.

So now, go up to where it says "edit" in a browser at the top of most browsers. Now click in Edit. A window should drop down and say something like "Undo" or redo then cut, copy, paste, delete and so on. Well. you need to become proficient with "Copy" and "Paste" but also "Undo" can be very helpful if you make a mistake while blogging or pasting a URL up into your address area.

Now in one window find what you want to copy: "URL" or whatever you want to copy to another location like a blog or to Word for a report or something.

In your first window left click your mouse and drag it over whatever you want to copy to another location. It should color it sort of like a marking pen you use in college to highlight something in a college book or something. Now go to word or another window where you want to copy this too.

And place the cursor exactly where you want to copy it too. Then after you place the cursor there go back and up to the Edit function drop down the window and hit "Paste" while you are either in the window you want to copy it to or in Word at the time. Whether it is a URL or whether it is a whole page or 20,000 words or whatever it should then copy to wherever you are sending it. But the longer it is the longer time it might take to go there and some computers and other devices might have a limitation of how much you can copy at one time. So, be aware of this too.

After you move stuff by copy and paste then save it wherever it is so you don't lose it while shifting between windows. This works and can be very helpful in compiling blogs or reports for work or for college or high school etc.

However, ONLY put URLs in the address line because it won't work if you put anything else there.

However, the address line in many newer computers you can also put a question (if you are in google or something like that and when you hit enter it might give you what you are looking for and then all you have to do is to click on it and go there. I find this saves me a lot of time doing this if I'm in google or something like that at the time anyway.

Also, you could also take stuff from word and copy and paste it into your blog online too for others to read if you want to. You could even put your whole book or books online for free if that is what you wanted to do.
