Some examples of multimedia

Audio Files

There are several Internet sites where one can download sound files or link to them for free. I found the following audio clip of the Three Stooges at WavCentral.com. This is in Motion Picture Experts Group format - an Mp3 file. Listen to Curly, Larry and Moe greet you:

So how do sound files work? I found a great explanation to that question at the Web site How Stuff Works. The information at this site contains well-written, easy-to-understand explanations of several topics. Click the link below to learn how audio files work:

Video Files

Just as there are many places on the Internet to find sound files, there are several sites that provide streaming video. I created the links below to lead someone to news video sites where the latest current events are always at hand. I chose the following YouTube channels because the video is more readily available than at the news services' main sites. Also, the source of the news has more credibility and background than the typical news site put up on the Web by a "citizen journalist."

BBC World News

PBS News Programs

Image Files

One Google Image Search on any topic can bring forth a plethora of images to choose from. But it takes critical thought and judgment to select an image that best matches the message of your Web site. I leave you with an image of the dour, yet insightful, Eeyore the donkey and his thoughts on the power of not only understanding information, but being able to use it.
