Find it Fast!

Ever been searching a long document for a key piece of information?  What about when you can't find that keyword on the website you're looking at?  Mac has a solution for that.  You can use the 'command f' key combination to find whatever you need in virtually any application.  For example, by using this key combination on a webpage, I searched 'emints.' 

By clicking the "Next" button shown above, the word eMINTS is highlighted individually.  If it is preferred, by clicking "Highlight all," I can see how many times the word is used in a single webpage.

This can be a handy feature when looking for information or for students to use as they determine if words are overused in their writing.  Remember that all applications might look a little different when using this feature.  To close the search, look for a button that is either red or has an "x" near the search field.
