Mouse Practice You're doing great so far. Now I'd like to explain what a link is. A link, also called a hyperlink, is merely a connector from one place to another. Sometimes it connects you from part of a document to another, sometimes it's from one document to another.So far, the links we've been clicking on have said "Click here..." and have been blue underlined text (or purple if they had already been clicked on). Usually on the web, links won't tell you to click on them. Instead they'll be just be part of the page.
Also, links won't always be blue and underlined -- the hand with the finger ( |

appearing is the only way to tell you are on a link.
In addition, on the Web there's generally no need to double-click, Single-clicking on a link is all you need to do to make it work. If you click and the word you clicked on turns blue, it means you moved
the mouse when you clicked. If you see this, click on the link again and try not to move the mouse.
