Finally, after a long day of using google search engine. It has been a great expereince using it especially when I used the advanced search and I'm feeling lucky, it allows me to reduce the amount of relevant results. And using "define" will allow me to find the definition of any word easily. The function "I'm feeling lucky" allows me to see the first search results on the query which is good for people who wan result fast. "OR" "AND" and brackets can be use to reduce or increase the scoop of you search.
Participating in forums is a fun thing to do as it can help u increase your knowledge on a certain topic you wan to find. Since I have not post my topic on a forum yet I shall use my experience in participating in other forums. It all depends on the popularity of the forum and the amount of members that are active. The more active members a forum have, more likely you will receive a reply from people especially those people that love to help others alot. Meeting new people on forums is a quite cool as we can stay contact with each other through the thread as we all share the same interest. People can easily share informations and links that they think it would be helpful to you. This will allow you to do stuff with ease. However sometimes the information people give may not be accurate therefore we must always check it before we use it. Or we could cross reference with other website.
Citation and bibliography is important as we have to give people the credit for the information or resources they post online which we for our project. Researchers should be given the credit for their work as spend alot of effort putting all the resources together. Some of the researchers spend alot of times confirm the information they put online is correct too. In conclusion, I think citation and bibliography is a type of respect to those that did the research.
