Addresses
The most common start to an Internet address, “http://”, may be omitted for space or appearance in general interest publications since most browsers will locate the site anyway. However, other expressions at the start (such as “ftp://”) need to be included.
If an Internet or e-mail address falls at the end of a sentence, conclude with a period. This will not confuse most readers.
If an Internet address breaks between lines, break it before a slash or a dot that is part of the address without inserting a hyphen:
www.middlebury.edu
/~dining/rehearsals/
“Go addresses” should be written in their entirety: To find a list of Middlebury Go Addresses, visit the Gotionary at http://go.middlebury.edu/gotionary.
