OP's WWW Scavenger Hunt

Working with a partner, try to find the answers to these questions.

Number a piece of paper to record your answers or better yet, if you're using Netscape, select "New Window" under the "File" menu to open a new window to work in.

You can move the new window to the right of your screen so that you can look at the questions while you are searching for the information. Then you can print out your answers when you have finished. Pretty handy, eh?

Oh, and good luck!
