Hi all,

Brenda, Google is a "search engine".  Its purpose is to help you find
information on the Net.  What the computers at Google do is search
through hundreds of thousands of web pages to find messages or
documents that have the words in them which you have requested.  this
is the simple answer.  The difficulty comes in knowing how to search,
what to ask for.  There are tutorials available on this, but simple
searches are not hard.  Suppose you wanted to search for computer
games for the blind.  You go to:

http://www.google.com

In the edit box you type:

games+blind+computers

Then you press 'enter' on the search button.  Google will come up with
a page where there will be several links to various gaming sites for
the blind.  

You should try it.  It's actually kind of fun.  You can, if you get
really good write complicated statements to search for one thing and
not another and so on.  But this should get you started.

Ann P.
