Internet for Dummies, Wednesday 10/18, 3rd Period

The plasma screen in the computer lab is on and showing an episode of Galaxy Quest when the students enter. Abby waves from where she's eating popcorn and watching.

"Good morning! Today we're going to work on finding video's and music on the web." She launched into a description of Youtube, Google Video and iTunes.

"Those are the legal ways to view or get movies. The illegal ones are a lot more fun." Abby grinned. "There are communities and message boards set up where people offer up songs or videos to share. Or you can download a torrent for whatever you're looking for."

"Today you're going to be downloading peer to peer filesharing programs. My personal favorite is Limewire, but you're free to find one of your own. I want to see some illegal downloads before this class is over!"

I like the way you think!

*hums* We were drawn from the weeds, we were brave like soldiers . . .

Great. Now it's never leaving.

It never left in the first place. Once it's there, it never goes away. It just gets very, very quiet until you least expect it.

*twitches at memory of a very, very bad time when the song got stuck in head*
