I've heard (or maybe 'I said to myself'

) "It's not plagiarism if you 'cite your sources'"
And online, that often includes "hyperlinking to the source."
I'm not sure if they teach hyperlinking in school---I'm kind of 'self-taught' in hyperlinking (other than 'my friends say, "If you're surfing The Internet & you see text that's underlined and in a different color,
CLICK IT! (and it'll usually open another website)!"'
to BUILD a hyperlink (in case you you don't have the
URL-button above the text-entry), use the code:
- Code: Select all
[url=https://forumcoin.com/search.php?author_id=5154&sr=posts(or whatever URL you want to hyperlink to](the text you want to hyperlink)[/url]
... and (after you submit the post) it'll come out looking like this:
The word "Hyperlink" is of course a combination of the prefix "Hyper-" and the word "Link."
The prefix "Hyper-" comes from a wordroot that means "Over" (and the word Hyper is short for Hyperactive ... and the use in Internet Programming might be inspired by "Hyperspace"---the sci-fi term for 'the function that takes a spaceship from one location to another without traveling the full distance in between---
(think of a worm reaching the other side of an apple by tunneling through it rather than crawling around it ... this is why such a travel-route is called a wormhole).
And "Link" comes from a wordroot that means "Bend, Turn (like a Ring in a Chain)" or "Light, Brightness (shining from a Lamp)" or "Rising Ground, Ridge (like the Links on a Golf-Course)"---also the roots of "Linked, Linking, Linkage, Unlink, Uplink."
