An OCR system enables you to take a book or a magazine article, feed it directly into an electronic computer file, and then edit the file using a word processor. The two part process involves "scanning" the printed words to create a "picture" of the text (as you would scan a photograph) and then using OCR software to analyze each "marking" in order to convert it to actual alphabetic text. Although some of the resulting text might be "garbled", most of the markings will be accurately converted to text that may then be edited in a conventional word processing program.

A. Thanx. I checked out several versions of "Danny Boy" midi files. The one I used was my favorite. For those of you who didn't save a copy of it, here it is again. To listen to it, just click on the link below. To save it on your hard drive, just RIGHT-CLICK on the link and pick "SAVE LINK AS".

The U.S. Department of Defense laid the foundation of the Internet roughly 30 years ago with a network called ARPANET. Limited to educational and scientific use, ARPANET was a very technical experiment.

The general public didn't use the Internet much until after the development of the World Wide Web in the early 1990s. Basicaly, the World Wide Web is a graphical document standard (based upon a computer language called HTML) that allows the sharing of millions and millions of documents (Web Pages) among all those who are connected to the network of computers known as the INTERNET (formerly known as ARPANET).

As recently as June 1993, there were only 130 Web sites. Now there are millions and millions of Web sites. It was the "easy to use" graphical nature of HTML documents that contributed greatly to the growth of the World Wide Web as we know it.

No one authority controls the World Wide Web. Today's Web site authoring tools allow virtually anyone who has access to a computer and the Internet to post a Web site and contribute to the definition of what this medium is and what it can do.

All of this in just the last few years... and you ain't seen nothing yet. What a great time in history to be alive!
