Often you will find a website that is great and you will want to visit it again. No problem, add it to your favourites.
Your favourites is like a bookmark, you can however have as many favourites as you want. Now given the size of the Internet and the huge amount of research you will be doing, it is obvious that if you just add all the sites you like to favourites, you will eventually have such a long list that you will probably not find the site you want to revisit in the list anyway. We need to be a bit more organised than that.
We can group our favourites together, almost like using different coloured bookmarks in a book. With the Internet we use folders, which are like folders in a filing cabinet. We can name each folder, eg "Houses", "Car Prices", etc. and then pop the sites we like into the relevant folder. Next time you are looking for car prices, you simply go to the "Car Prices" folder and there the required sites are waiting for you.
Great, now how the heck do I do all this?
The first site you add to favourites takes a little work, so let's first do that :
1) Click on the "Favourites" text menu near the top of the page, then click "Add to Favourites" (if you are using Internet Explorer 7 you will also have a button with a star and a plus sign in it that does the same thing).
2) A small window opens up with a few options. The first option is a box with the site title in it already, change this to something that makes more sense to you if you want.
3)The second option is the folder you want to save the site in. Click on the "New Folder" button and type in "New Zealand", click Create / OK. What we have done now is create a New Zealand drawer in our filing cabinet. Now we can start to add folders into the drawer.
4) Click on the "New Folder" button again and type in the category of the website you are wanting to file, eg., if it is a site with car prices, then, same as you did for the "New Zealand" folder create a "Car Prices" folder. Then, before clicking OK, ensure that the Create In drop down box says "New Zealand". If it doesn't, click on the down arrow and select "New Zealand". Then click Create / OK.
5) Now you click the Add button and your site is saved for you.
You can now add more car prices sites to your favourites by doing steps 1, 2 and 5 above and ensuring at step 2 that you have your "Car Prices" folder selected.
You can also add other folders for say house prices by doing step 1, 2, 4 and 5.
Once you have done it once or twice it becomes easy.
To call up a site saved under your favourites, you click on the Favourites text menu or Favourites button (Big yellow star), then go to the New Zealand folder, then to the required folder, eg., "Car Prices", then select the site you want to call up.
Start by adding this site to your favourites under the New Zealand -> Immigration Sites folder.
Now you are starting to get yourself organised.
