I find it appropriate to make this the very first guide on this website. I you are familiar with the web, you will have no problem using this website, but this question is dedicated to those who struggle with Internet searches.
If you did not find this website through a search engine like Google, Yahoo or Bing, you are were most likely referred to this website by a friend. This page will help you find your way, if that friend did not explain to you how to search for stuff on this website
So you came to this website to resolve some issue you have on your computer. The very first thing you should do is to enter a phrase in the search box at the top of this page and click on Go. Your search phrase can be in telegram style or just plain English. If plain English does not deliver any satisfactory results, try using telegram style or just use the most important word in your search phrase.
To illustrate how this works, I will explain how to find this page:
- Enter the words 'how to use nicetoknow.co.za' in the search box at the top of this page and click on the Go button.
- A list of results will be displayed on your screen. In this example, you will only get one result, namely a link to this page.
Click on the link (the underlined text that reads 'How to use this website') and this page will open.
- On each page you will find a short summary about the article, namely, the date on which it was added, the platform applicable to
the article, for example Linux or Windows and the version of the operating system used to test the instructions explained in the
article, for example Windows 7 or Fedora 17.
- At the bottom of each page, you will find a list of articles related to the one you are currently viewing. For example, 'The purpose of this website' is listed as a related article to this page.
And that is about it. Now that you know how to use this website, I really hope that you will find what you are looking for and if you don't, feel free to contact me at any time.
