Cause I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For
4 Keys To Success For A Successful Online Search
www.everonit.com
by Doug Ziewacz
Online search and search engines are changing the way individuals research and access information. Instead of consulting the phone book, card catalogs, atlas, or encyclopedia we Google, Yahoo, and Ask Jeeves. Endless amounts of information are easily accessible at the click of a mouse. You would think that finding what we are looking for would be a piece of cake. This, however, is not always the case.

For at least a few minutes.Not so much for the flight to take me back to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., mind you, but for that reassuring "Wireless Network Connection" message to pop up above the taskbar on my laptop PC. The posters on the wall promoting free in-terminal Wi-Fi access — JetBlue calls them "Hot Zones" — promised a connection as effortless as a Bar-headed Goose coasting with the jet stream. Sure enough, finally, there was the message. At least that's what I thought.My computer "saw" the network, but it wouldn't connect. For another 10 agonizing minutes, I tried to get into the zone, but was denied at every click. I asked a gate agent for help, and she offered to phone a tech-support line. No one answered. I asked several airport employees what to do. No one had a clue. My search for wireless access had stalled, and with my battery running down, I put my PC away for the flight. What's the hold up?
