If you've gotten this far, you probably know a thing or two about the Internet. But here's somethings you may not know about!

E-mail is the main way that people communicate on the Internet. You can send e-mail through a software program, through your browser, and sometimes even through your phone! Did you know in July 2001 there are more than 165 million Americans online? That's a lot of e-mail!

The easiest way to check e-mail is through your browser. Some people like to use programs called Eudora or Outlook because you can do a lot more things with it. You can organize your e-mail, create shortcuts, and more.

At Girlstart.com we use free e-mail through girlday.com. You can use it to e-mail your friends! All you need is their e-mail address and you can write them a letter.
