Happy Valentines Day!


Did you know that the Valentines Day holiday probably derives

from the ancient Roman feast of Lupercalis? I learned that by

searching the free online version of MSN Encarta Encyclopedia.

The online encyclopedia gives you access to more than 4,500

articles plus a lot of other helpful information.


New ebooks: This month we have something classic and something

new - Alice in Wonderland and a unique photography dictionary.


Training dates are set for March. Great excuse to visit Florida

in the winter. Reserve a spot soon, space is limited.


Thanks for reading.

1) Encarta Encyclopedia - Over 4,500 Articles Searchable Online


I can remember when it was a great bonus to get an Encarta

Encyclopedia with a new computer. Well, now it's a great bonus

to access and search an Encarta Encyclopedia online.


The MSN Encarta Encyclopedia online gives you access to over

4.500 articles. Search the articles by word or phrase or use

the Article Center's category list to find a specific article

by topic.


But that's not all. Encarta online gives you links to other

useful collections of information...


**Sidebars - Historic documents, famous speeches, literary

excerpts, and more.


**Literature Guides - Perspectives on authors, characters, and

 themes of renowned works of literature.


**Archives - Year-by-year wrap-up of important events from

1938 to 1999.


and more...

2) New eBooks (FREE DOWNLOADS)


Search on-line or download free, searchable copies of...


** The Photography Dictionary


Unique database of photography terms containing over

2,400 words and definitions. This dictionary contains a

combination of many different photography dictionaries,

glossaries, and other photography related information.

Search the dictionary by any word or phrase.


See:

     http://www.asksam.com/ebooks/photodictionary/




** Alice In Wonderland


Read, search, and analyze the text of Alice's Adventures in

Wonderland by Lewis Carroll. Our 10 year old Reba decided that

it was time to make an eBook from something that she'd actually

read.

"askSam is an essential part of my software tool chest. I can research and collect data from anywhere and any source. Once it is in askSam I can edit, rearrange, organize, and search the information easily. Then I can present it and make it totally useful for other people via the web or CD. Fantastic!"
