Abstract
For many people today, the Internet and its technical components are still fairly new. While building websites has become a popular pastime, many people want to join in. The web site Heather and I have been creating offers helpful guidelines for creating a website and discusses important ethical issues regarding publishing on the web. Our home page navigation bar consists of seven menu items: Being Reliable, Maintaining Accurate Content, Getting Permissions, Linking Ethically, Registering, Copyrighting, and Being Aware of Other Issues. Each of these homepage items links to a separate page on the site. On each page we discuss, in simple terms, the basics about its topic. Each page also includes additional links for more information from other sources.
