New Prestwood Study Tests
Although our Prestwood Certified area is currently in beta, our study tests are available now. Each study test features beginner, intermediate, and advanced questions. Although we have to add many more questions, the tests are live now and usable for study and review. The purpose of our study tests is to learn and review. You hover over answers to reveal the correct answer. Each question features a pop up [Review] link of study material. Test yourself and review concepts you are not familiar with.

General News & Trends topic:
John McCain Introduces Bill Against Net NeutralityDespite it's name, "The Internet Freedom Act of 2009" does not free the Internet. It's an attack against Net Neutrality and yet another attempt to give the Internet to big business.
What is Net Neutrality? Net neutrality (also network neutrality, Internet neutrality) frees restrictions on content, sites, or platforms, on the kinds of equipment that may be attached, and on the modes of communication allowed, as well as one where communication is not unreasonably degraded by other communication streams.

Language Details Topic:
Code Snippet of the Month
Same as VB. The Me keyword is a built-in variable that refers to the class where the code is executing.
Class Cyborg
Public CyborgName
Public Function IntroduceYourself()
'Using Me. Prints Cameron.
Response.Write("Hi, my name is " & Me.CyborgName & ".")
'The above is just a demo. You could also not include "Me."
'in this case because we are in context of Me now. Using Me
'makes more sense when you start to pass Me as a parameter
'to a method.
End Function
End Class
