Web-sending

  • Web-sending: Giving people a clickable web link that takes them to the page.

Prepared 

  • You have a 3DWebWorldz place.
  • You have web pages you want visitors or students to see, read, respond to.
  • You build your library of links.
  • Here's how:  Building your Link Library
  • You gather all those questions you have to answer for new people.
  • You put them on the web (maybe in your class or project blog).
  • You put objects with appropriate links in your 3DWebWorldz place.
  • If someone asks, you point them to the object with the answers.  
  • They hover the red circle over the object and get to open the web page. 
  • Better yet, you don't have to be there.  They can get the answers themselves.

Spontaneous

  • You can't anticipate everything people will ask. 
  • And they may ask in a place where you don't have your link objects at hand.
  • You may have answered in your class or project blog.  
  • So you know where the answer is. You need a way to give the link immediately.
How to send a web link 
immediately
  • Click the Chat and Radar button.
  • Copy the url from the address bar of the browser.
  • In region chat, paste the url.

 Region chat shows web link url
  • Expressions that start with http become web links people can click.
