Milestone IV: Case Study in Online Research

It is interesting to see that you can gain access to primary sources online. This helps to make researching topics a lot easier because everything is on the internet and you are able to view some things that you might never be able to see. By reading into searches you are able to truly see what is primary or what is a secondary source. I really did not know you could find primary sources online, I thought that you had to actually go to certain libraries to be able to gain access to these types of sources. The internet has opened many, many doors for people when they want to look into topics, any topics. From being able to look up primary sources to secondary sources, to pictures, and video clips. Everything has become easily accessible with the internet. This is a great way to start looking into exactly what the internet can do for a person. You think you know all the ins and outs of the internet and searching, but then you come across a chapter like this in an IT class and you are totally blown away by the information that you can truly find online. I tried just searching around on the internet to try and see the new searching techniques like using AND, OR, along with searching for images. The internet is amazing because of the extensive areas it searches.
