Welcome, Mamak49!
This is the right forum to ask that question! Post again in the Homesteading folder, though - and I bet you'll have lots of knowledgable answers! ;)

I don't know about those - but I DO know about finding my way back here! Just click on the word "Favorites" if you're using the Microsoft Explorer - it's the top line of commands. Then click "Add to favorites" and when a drop-down box appears, add it to the folder called "LINKS" - that will give you a quick link right under the address box at the top. I renamed mine so it wouldn't take up so much room - to BWH for Backwoods Home.
I have lots of links in that row and I can use them without opening the "Favorites" list (which is another way you can get to anything that you mark as a favorite site.

Other web explorers use "Bookmarks" but it means the same thing!

Hope this helps! 8)
