My First IS Lesson:The Internet and WWW

This is what i learned in this lesson:

I Learned that the internet was created in 1969 to let scentist contact each other and share informations with each other. But, since the internet was created more and more people use it and has grown to a number of more than 2 mllion users today.There are two ways to connect to the internet.1 way is to use the slow-speed technology and the other way is to use the high-speed connection.Each website has a domain name like :www.abc.com but it also has an IP address which the computer reads it as something like :52.123.469.21 .Next, what is WWW? WWW stands for world wide web which means world wide collections of webpages.Then, there is the web browser like the internet and mozila firefox etc. etc. for you to browse the web. There is also the URL which stands for Uniform Resource Locator. Then there are the 9 basic types of web sites, portal, news, informational, business/marketing, educational, entertainment, advocacy, blog and personal. There is also the guideline to judge the value of a website that is affiliation, audience, authority, contents, currency, design and objectivity.
Last but not least, we need to have netiquette and treat others as you would like them to treat you.That would be the end of my post thank you for reading it.
