Are you search savvy?
Quick test: Using any method you choose, find each of the following on the web. There is no time limit.
If you were able to complete all three missions, you are more search savvy than 85% of the graduate students at Tel Aviv University (according to a 2002 sampling).
Yikes! Even allowing for today's better search technology, and a generally more web-acquainted population, that's still pretty amazing. I was able to pull up all four (I grabbed both novels) in about a minute of searching. Now, I know I'm a geek, but still. Some of those were as simple as clicking on the first link Google offers.
Anyhow, why don't you post your results to the comments section - I'm hopeful that my readership is smarter than the average clickers!
- A picture of the Mona Lisa
- The complete text of either Robinson Crusoe or David Copperfield
- A recipe for applie pie that includes a photograph of the finished product
