THIS is a new week and time for another journey to the cyber world with our friends. Lets get on board and take off to the tour.

The Internet is an ocean of information and has a lot of useful and interesting information for all of us. Be it studies, fun, entertainment, projects, crafts or anything, there are numerous interesting sites present. One such interesting site is www.exploratorium.edu. This site is quite different from others as has a lot of unusual stuff like exploring Antartica, building a solar system, exploring the science of baseball, skateboarding, hockey, cycling, exploring new approaches o mathematics with new methods, games, quizzes, tricks and activities etc. Thus overall it has a lot of interesting and offbeat stuff for kids.

Do you know that what could be the spelling of GIRL in the forthcoming Internet age? It will be gURL. Yeah you guessed that right. The use of Internet would be so big in the time to come that the language will also be evolved in tune with the changing times. However, talking of girls, the Internet has some special sites dedicated for girls. One such site is www.girltech.com/Index_home.html. This is a cool site with lots of fun activities for girls like, games, activities, and crafts. The site is very well laid and has sections like speak your mind, fun games to play online and offline, for creative minds like you, girl and women rocking the world, go girls, girl views, all your news, girl tech stuff, Tech trips and links to other girl- friendly sites, etc. If you are a boy, then you need not worry as you can also log on to this site in the boys category. Thus if you are boy, then simply click on the "If you're a boy" link button and the site suitable for you would be opened. A good site with a separate section for the parents and school. — IV
