What is a **hyperlink** and how will I know when I see one? Well, a **hyperlink** is a special set of words. You will know they are special because there are a few clues that you will spot right away. 1. The words will look different than the other words on the page. Usually the words are underlined or in a different color (sometimes both). Sometimes the words look like they are in a button. 2. When you move your cursor over a **hyperlink**, the arrow will always turn into a pointing finger. When your cursor turns into a pointing finger you can press on the **hyperlink** by left clicking with your mouse. By doing that, you will be taken to a website on the internet.

 * COPY AND PASTE**

These are two functions that you will use very often. When you **copy** something, you highlight it using your cursor then you press the copy button. The computer will remember all the items you have highlighted and will wait for further instructions. When you **paste** something, it takes the items from the computer's memory and pastes them wherever you have inserted your cursor (pointed with your arrow). So, put your arrow in a place on the document and click once. You will see a blinking line. Then press the paste button from your toolbar.
