Downloading
a File
|
|
|
|
Normally, when
people talk about downloading, they are talking
about finding a program or a document online
that they want to keep and look at later.
So what we're really talking about is saving
stuff. Here’s an example.
|
|
|
|
I've been thinking
about going to Amsterdam, so I decided to
download a list of sights to see there. You
will find downloads all over the web. Once
again, Yahoo! is a good source for these.
Another is ZDnet.

How
to do it
- Use
the search to find files that you
want to download.
|
| |
- Not
all download pages look the same.
But there's almost always a link that
says "Download Now"
- On
some sites, especially those with
lots of downloads, you will have an
option to add your download to a basket.
This works just like shopping
on line. You'll select one or more
downloads. When it's time to check
out, you'll be able to download all
your files one after another.
