Rollyo Search Engine Experience


Visiting http://rollyo.com/ was quite the adventure. I tried getting to this website several different times over a period of a few days. I tried three different computers and different web browsers, such as Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Chrome, to no avail. I also e-mailed Anne about it a few times, saying it didn’t work for me and asking if she could access it successfully. During class on Tuesday, I discovered that I was not the only one in our class who was not able to get to this website. That was a relief. So, in the end I was not able to access this website because of maintenance at the site.

 If I were to create a Rollyo search engine, I would call it Exploration and I would have my category be Education. To begin, I would include the following links in my Rollyo search engine:
      -http://www.wikipedia.org/
      -http://news.hjnews.com/
      -http://www.time.com/time/
As a librarian in a school setting, I would likely add other links that would help students with more specific assignments.
