    Up in the corner of the message area where you read the messages, on the right side, it says BOOKMARK IT.
    Click on that.
    A little box will pop up. Most of us don't like this little box because you have to finaggle around it.
    But here's what to do...
    Once the box pops up, enlarge the box.
    Then using the scroll on the side and bottom of the box, move it until you
    can see where you hit BOOKMARK or whatever the words are.

    Hope this helps.
    If you don't understand this way, maybe someone else can explain better

    Oh okay, I inlarged with the little magnifier glass but the box actually does not get larger just the inside does. Same for everyones? I think I can use it now. Thanks

    Yup, the box doesn't get bigger, the words do so you can scroll within the box. Maybe I should have made that a bit clearer.
    Sometimes my directions aren't all that good.

    Some browsers don't let the box enlarge. I love this feature - it makes finding things soooo much easier. I also like to get a feel for what people are like from their bookmarks.

    Here's what I got a while back;

    Chele:
    Here's what I do. Click on Bookmark It! When the tiny screen comes up click somewhere on that little screen. Then hit enter. You'll get a box that says you bookmarked that. Took me months to figure it out, but it works!
    Be good.



    Yvonne:

    That's what I do too. I'm working with an apple MacBook and sometimes I'll tab until I see the word "yes" and then hit enter. It works!

    Thanx for even pointing out that we could 'bookmark' it....I've never paid attention to it.

    When I hit bookmark it, I get a big box that shows the link, another line for 'description' and then an 'update' box which when I clicked on it, it was bookmarked. Easy as could be.

    My first bookmark here! Fun fun fun.

    Learn so much here! :D
