Site Activity Sections of a
site that require user input can be considered site activities. These activities are often accessed by Web icons that represent the activity in some manner. Most online Web-based mail systems such as Yahoo!'s mail have functions
that require user input such as an address book. The signifier rolodex
, signifies that data (addresses) may
be stored in the system. This particular icon may not be understood by Web site visitors that are unfamiliar with what a rolodex is.
When a user clicks on the small square pencil icon, then they are presented with an edit window that allows an article to be edited.
