If you’re wondering where all this information comes from, there’s a whole “invisible” side of web browsing. When you click on a link, your web browser not only asks the hosting computer for the web page, but also tells it what computer and web browser you are using; this information is often used to adjust the content of the web page to make it display best on your machine. Also, when you click on a link from a search engine, that search engine tells the web site computer which term you used to find them.

Several people have posted photos from the BHS Class of ‘78 class on Facebook. You can see them using the links below: (you’ll need to be a Facebook member to see them, but if you’re not, please join–there’s quite a few Class of 78 classmates on Facebook).

If you find another one, leave a comment below with the link, and I’ll add it to the list above.

YouTube “groups” for 1970s and 1980s videos

I just created a couple of YouTube “Groups” to hold videos from the 70s and 80’s. If you have videos on YouTube, you can add them to the group. The addresses for the groups are:

(pretty easy addresses, yes?)

Feel free to add videos to your class decade.

I created groups for these two decades because I knew of videos for them. If you know of videos from other decades, please start a group for them and I’ll post a link here.
