[LM_NET] Target: Link checking?

[Bev Nelson <bev.nelson@SPRINGGROVE.K12.MN.US>]

Hello - As I instruct students on ways to find quality web pages, I came
across a suggestion to have students perform a link check.  I was told to
type in the word "link:"  followed by the URL.  I have been playing with
this for a few minutes and I am wondering just how this is supposed to work.
Does anyone do something like this and could explain it to me?  Is this
conducted as a Google search?Or is there a way to do it in a url box?  Do
the links just pop up on screen?  Any clarification would be appreciated.
Thanks
