- MAP-EXTRA: POP QUIZ #2
- ----------------------
-
- "The Golden Age of the Net was last year. The Golden Age
- of the Net was *ALWAYS* last year!!" -- Rev. Bob "Bob" Crispen
-
-
- This is going to be fun! This quiz only has four questions, but the
- questions require you to use the Internet to find the answers >:)
-
- Again, do not send your answers to me. This exam is self-graded, and
- the answers will be posted on FRIDAY (I want to give you plenty of
- time to complete this exam).
-
-
- 1. There are literally THOUSANDS of files available through FTP
- that have the .TXT file extension. Tell me the exact location
- of just one of these files (hint: see MAP17).
-
-
- 2. Rick Gates has a monthly competition called "The Internet Hunt."
- The Hunt asks ten of the most contrived questions you have ever
- seen, and the Hunt's participants have to find the answers using
- nothing but the Internet (and they also have to show where they
- found the answers).
-
- Come to think of it, the Internet Hunt is a lot like this pop
- quiz ... hmmmm ....
-
- I have heard that Rick places the Hunt results on the CICNET Gopher
- server (gopher.cic.net) in Michigan (U.S.)
-
- I am interested in the Hunt results. In particular, I am interested
- in May, 1994 results.
-
- Who won the May 1994 Internet Hunt in the individual category? :)
- (Note: you may want to bookmark the main Internet Hunt menu --
- it is a WONDERFUL Internet training resource).
-
-
- 3. I just tried a Veronica search and I got an "Empty Menu" error
- for a file that I *KNOW* exists. I should call my local Internet
- service provider and complain, right? Explain your answer :)
-
-
- 4. I want to subscribe to a LISTSERV list. The list's address is
- NAVIGATE@UBVM
-
- Tell me what I need to do.
-
-
- BONUS: What *IS* Clifford Stoll's next book going to be about?
- (One of the questions above gives you enough information to find
- the answer).
