Maybe not everything...

But seriously, I was looking for the same picture frame that I had gotten for Dearra, a frame where you put in photos for every month for their first year. The store I bought it at didn't have it any more. I couldn't find it at a frame store. I looked at the one I already had, got the company name, looked it up online and there it was!

My favorite jeans, well they're getting a bit worn and JC Penney doesn't carry them any more. I went online and there they were.

My German letters that I'm translating (well I need to get back to them) - I found the script that they were written in on the internet and I was able to look up all the towns that were being talked about and actually see pictures of what they look like, their history, etc.

The old book I got from my mom brought up a whole story of a very interesting man and a printing press and a crafter's group in New York, all on the internet.

Most of the time if I need something I can go over to Google or Yahoo or whatever and with a little searching, there it is. Who would have thought, 20 or 30 years ago, that we would have so much information at our fingertips?

Have you ever been unable to find something online (other than private information,perhaps)? Why? Was it something really obscure? Or was there too much information to wade through? Or what?

The other night I listened to a radio interview with famed character actor Maury Chaykin. So I looked him up online. Lots of info on him, but no pictures! Every link I went to, no pictures, or if they did have a pic, it was of a title shot of whichever show he was in, but not showing him.


myLot reputation of 96/100. dawnald (24270)   ranked 14 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

Did you try Google images? I'd say maybe he's camera shy, but an actor, I don't think so...


myLot reputation of 97/100. BarBaraPrz (6656)   ranked 88 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

There were some things I couldn't specifically find in the internet. It's more about our country, and specifically of the city I am in. It's because there aren't many sources available online regarding our city and I believe no one has ever had the heart to upload as much information on the net. I can't blame anybody though, it's a tough job. I for one couldn't think of an easy way to find really helpful historical facts about our city aside from those that are already generally known. Anyway, I'm sure many will come up with this idea in the near future so I guess everything will truly be available in the internet.


myLot reputation of 96/100. dawnald (24270)   ranked 14 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

I hope so and then lots of people from other places can learn about your country and city too!

Hiya dawn

I'm glad you managed to find the things you wanted. I was searching for a book on art for my brother and couldn't find it anywhere in the old town of Edinburgh. It was Giovanni Civardi's complete guide to drawing but had to be the 2006 edition.

I got to one of the most prominent bookstores in Edinburgh and they informed me that it was unobtainable in Edinburgh ...anywhere! So I went on line and lo and behold! i got it in Amazon thumbup

I read it wrong.. it's UNable to find lol.. yes as I said up there ^ I couldn't find a website..because it didn't exsist. Just one little word or letter can make all the difference.


myLot reputation of 96/100. dawnald (24270)   ranked 14 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

Hi Alice, The Dawn Zombie is barely awake due to "prime time" coverage of the Olympic figure skating. sleep

Figures you found it on Amazon, they seem to have built themselves a pretty amazing empire!

Lunch time...

if you didnt want to, you wouldnt have to leave your home at all. you could get your groceries delivered, shop online and have that delivered, met new people (chat) and keep in touch with everyone else (all your old friends!)


myLot reputation of 96/100. dawnald (24270)   ranked 14 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

too true. But getting out is good too! Seeing a work of art online isn't the same as seeing it in person, just for example...

Well,its true that now everything is available at our fingertips.Recently i purchased a laptop online and i was very happy to see that the website was providing much more information than the salesman that i earlier visited.And i also got some discount.


myLot reputation of 96/100. dawnald (24270)   ranked 14 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

Plus you can process the information at your own speed and order as opposed to the way the salesman presented it to you.

hi my friend! Yes, i was unable to find some proper information i was looking for in internet many times. You know, that I am a student, and I need very often to search some materials for my studying, but sometimes I really can't find nothing proper, because I need info about some books, that are not famous at all, and I can't find anything!


myLot reputation of 96/100. dawnald (24270)   ranked 14 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

That's a shame. But actually, you might have found the books online, but not the actual content of the books. I guess there's always the library!

Hi Dawn!

I love going to search engines--especially Google! I can't say I've ever not found what I was looking for, just not as much info as I would like sometimes. Many times though, I go to look for something and find other stuff that is better, cheaper, nicer, whatever, than I was looking for!

Today I downloaded a free pc/registry cleaner that was recommended in an article I read and it has made my slow pc run much better! Yippee!lolthumbup


myLot reputation of 96/100. dawnald (24270)   ranked 14 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

Hullo,

How's the snow?

Maybe I should try that on Dearra's PC. Then I wouldn't have to fight for mine so much!

Yay Evan!

Johnny wuz robbed!

:-)


myLot reputation of 99/100. nyhollyjean (2254)   ranked 756 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

Hardly any snow this year, my dear! We've been letting the Atlantic states have fun with it for awhile. We in the North don't want to appear selfish! lol (we need a snowball throwing smiley too!)

I was happy to see Evan do so well! And in a way I think Johnny was robbed, as he did do a clean skate. But, I guess the problem was that the judges didn't think his program was challenging enough for his level. I can't remember--did he do better than the Chech guy? If he didn't then he was robbed, for sure! :-(

go to www.Ccleaner.com for the download, if you want it! :-)


myLot reputation of 96/100. dawnald (24270)   ranked 14 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

Yep he did better than the Czech guy, 6th, I just think he could have pulled up to 4th or 5th. Oh well...

Hello dawn, I was able to find most of my items but I think I don't need much so most of the things I find online are excessive information of which I have yet to read. With things that I already own, I usually find reviews for them and/or read more about reviews before I buy them. Sometimes even trying to find used stuff, I can use ebay or craigslist. Thus, anything that I'm interested in nowadays I can compare prices so I usually do a lot of that since I own stuff that are commercially abundant.


myLot reputation of 96/100. dawnald (24270)   ranked 14 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

That is one problem, sometimes there is too much information and how do you know which source is going to be the best?


myLot reputation of 94/100. thuhuong (429)   ranked 2,952 out of 5,176 in internet  2 years ago

I know, that's the thing, and that's why there are people like you and I who are curious about what's behind all the hoopla if they're all the same stuff.
