Do you know how much easier academic referencing can be using Microsoft Word? Here is a quick guide to how to reference on Word.

When you have quoted someone, firstly, click the ‘references’ tab, and then  click ‘insert citation’ (top picture)

Then, choose the type of document you are citing (book, website, etc), and fill out the author and other categories for the reference. Word will remember this citation, and each time you cite that author you can select them from the ‘insert citation’ button without having to type it out each time. (left picture)

Finally, and most usefully, click ‘bibliography’ to get Word to automatically create a bibliography withal of your sources! This saves you loads of time. Another great feature is that you can click on ‘manage sources’ to add sources from other documents into your bibliography, saving you entering the same document across several assignments or essays. (right picture)

 I hope that helps!

Skype's newest ad that is bound to pull at your heartstrings!

Think Google respects your privacy? Think again.

Google goes through every Gmail that's sent or received, looking for keywords so they can target Gmail users with paid ads. And there's no way to opt out of this invasion of your privacy.                     

Outlook.com is different—they don't go through your email to sell ads.

Check out this website to find out how to keep your privacy....and also just use a mail service that is so intuitive and accessible!!
