1. Surf the web: If there is a topic you’ve
   always been interested in finding out about,

   online sites, such as Wal-mart, Sears, REI, etc.

   have the security lock symbol at the bottom
   indicating it is protecting your information, don’t
   use them.

   This is a fun and easy way to interact online. A little
   box will pop up for you to type your message into,
   then you hit send or enter, and it goes to the other
   person. It’s the internet version of talking on the phone.
9. Music: Some internet providers offer radios for you
   to listen to while online. You can find information
   about it in their help section.
10. Make your own website: Let people know what you
    are all about. There are many different website hosting
    sites online. Again, use the search engine and type in
    free websites.
