Providing Information on the Internet

The best and most inexpensive way to let people know who you are, what you are doing/
have done, and how, is through the Internet. For an organization or an institution, setting up a
home page is a good way to let the world know what its products and services are. In addition to
advertising, the other critical functions that relate to provision of information are

 Publishing including full text articles, abstracts, computer programs and demonstrations.
 Blogging, which is a form of self-publishing. A blog (or Web log) is a website, usually
maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or
other material such as graphics or video.
 Extension, in which some of the delays associated with the printed media, may be reduced.
 Teaching, the possibilities here include both distance learning and assistance for students.
