"Hi! I'm Gary for Expert Village. We will go into our book marks and we will find a web page that we like to go to and we don't always remember the exact name of the site. What we can do is right click that web page in our browser and we will be presented with a menu. One of the options in the menu is to fill in a keyword. We will go ahead and fill in a word that will help you remember the site. For this example, I am opening up a web page that gives me telephone numbers and addresses in Canada. That is basically Canadian phone directory. I am going to type in the keyword. When I right click the option where it says keyword, I am going to type the word address and I am going to save it and close it. Now when I go into my browser, all I have to do is type in the word address and we see that it automatically knows to search for that web page. So therefore I don't need to know the exact name of the page and I also don't need to go through my whole list in my book marks page to find that particular site. I can just go and call up the web page by the key word address. This is really helpful in making it easier to search my favorite web pages. "
