Computers 101, 1st Period [Friday]

Sam had been nice and turned on all the computers again before the students arrived, since so many of them had claimed to only have a little experience last week. Plus, it made up for how potentially mean he was about to be.

"Hey guys, welcome back," he said, smiling at them all. "So, I figured we'd start this week with the biggest reason people use computers these days - the internet. Now, I don't want to just set you loose to explore, because there's a lot of terrible stuff out there, so instead, I want to focus on a particular kind of website, namely the kind that are designed to suck you in and not let go. Whether it's encyclopedic information, lists, fiction discussion, or even pictures of animals, these sites are ridiculously addictive, but also a lot of fun." Sam showed everyone - or, at least, everyone who needed to know - how to get onto the internet and go to specific sites, and then looked around. "I want you to pick one of these sites, or another one that might interest you, and see how long it takes you to get back out of it. Then, we'll talk about what you guys think of this kind of crack." If nothing else, they'd have to stop looking when class was over, right?

Seifer wasn't even trying to escape from Music Wikipedia (http://www.wikimusicguide.com/). Mostly because there was a LOT of stuff he was interested in.
