Citation

[0098386]

Just a wee bit of help here. I'm writing up a research document for a bit of the old coursework only it fails to mention how to cite online sources with a bibliography entry etc in the Harvard referencing style. Which is silly as I'm on a New Media Design course...

So how do I do it? Any brilliant people here know?

The usual order is:

Author, "Title of article/website", URL, date accessed, date of publication.

eg. Smith John, "G5 Powerbooks Next Tuesday", http://www.macrumours.com/nevergoingtohappen/304920498, (accessed on 10th March 2005), 10th February 2005.

Hope that helps!
