Q: From a librarian: "Dear Barry: I do not know much about this debate, but I have a question for you: Please tell me how do you find in google the hits? what is the procedure? i.e. if I would like to know how many time the word Caribbean appears in Google, how will I proceed? Thanks for your help! Nelly" A: 1. Go to www.google.com 2. type in Carribean 3. Look at the light blue web bar on top of the first list of hits. It will show you the approximate number of hits: Example: "Results 1 - 10 of about 38,100,000 for caribbean" Barry _____________________________________________________________________ Barry Wellman Professor of Sociology NetLab Director wellman at chass.utoronto.ca http://www.chass.utoronto.ca/~wellman Centre for Urban & Community Studies University of Toronto 455 Spadina Avenue Toronto Canada M5S 2G8 fax:+1-416-978-7162 To network is to live; to live is to network () ASCII ribbon campaign -- don't use HTML email /\ _____________________________________________________________________
