If you find a cool site or page that you would like to provide a hyperlink to, type the following

<a href="http://URL of site or page">name of site</a>

where the "name of site" is the text in your message that will serve as the hyperlink.

Here's an example for a hyperlink to the Middle School Science Teachers' Lounge. And here's what I typed into my message to get this:

Here's an example for a hyperlink to the <a href="http://www.middleschoolscience.org">Middle School Science Teachers' Lounge</a>

I have printed this little trick & taped it to my computer monitor, although I should have memorized it by now.

Another little trick is to skip lines in your message you must type <P> at the point where you want a line to be skipped. Have fun!

PS: The "code" for inserting hyperlinks may look wrong in your e- mail message for reasons that I won't even try to explain. The correct format is on the Discussion Forum.
