INTRODUCTION
 It'sno secret that more and
more the internet is becoming
an integral part of our everyday
lives. But if you are new to the
online experience, it may be a
bit overwhelming. You may be
wondering, "What exactly is the
internet, and how does it work?"
In this Presentation, i will give a
brief overview of the internet,
and i will talk about some
fundamental concepts such as
networks, servers, and clients.
INTERNET
# lets know

1. The internet is the largest computer network in the world, connecting

millions of computers. A network is a group of two or more computer systems
linked together.
2. Through the Internet, people can share information and communicate from
anywhere with an Internet connection.
3. The Internet has millions of smaller domestic, academic, business,
and government networks, which together carry many different kinds of
information. The short form of internet is the 'net'. ... It is used by
billions of people all over the world.
The Internet Today
 Inthe early days, most people just used the
internet to search for information. Today's
internet is a constantly evolving tool, that
not only contains an amazing variety of
information, but also provides new ways of
accessing, interacting and connecting with
people and content. As a result, new terms
are constantly appearing as new
technologies are introduced.
There is a few common terms that
you might encounter online.
There are two main types of computer
networks:
Local AreaNetwork (LAN)
wide area network (WAN)
Local Area Network (LAN)
A LAN is two or more connected computers sharing
certain resources in a relatively small geographic
location, often in the same building. Examples
include home networks and office networks.
 wide area network (WAN)
A wide area network (also known as WAN), is a
large network of information that is not tied to a
single location. WANs can facilitate communication,
the sharing of information and much more between
devices from around the world through a WAN
provider.
 Servers & Clients
 You may have heard someone say something like "The server is down" or
"We're having problems with the e-mail server." A server is a computer that
"serves" many different computers in a network by running specialized
software and storing information. For example, web pages are stored on
servers.
 When you access a web page, your computer is acting as a client. A client
runs familiar software such as web browsers or email software, and it
communicates with the server to get the information it requires.
 In order for your browser to display a web page, it requests the data from
the server where the page is stored. The server processes the request, then
sends the data to your browser, where it is displayed.
 In peer-to-peer (P2P) networks, each computer acts as both a server and a
client. Examples of P2P software include Skype and BitTorrent.
The World Wide Web (WWW)
 When most people think of the internet, the first
thing they think about is the World Wide W eb.
Nowadays, the terms "internet" and "World Wide
Web" are often used interchangeably— but they're
actually not the same thing.
 The internet is the physical network of computers
all over the world.
 The World Wide Web is a virtual network of web
sites connected by hyperlinks (or "links"). Web sites
are stored on servers on the internet, so the World
Wide Web is a part of the internet.
HTML
The backbone of the World Wide Web is made of HTML files, which are specially-
formatted documents that can contain links, as well as images and other media. All
web browsers can read HTML files. In addition to HTML, it's also very common for
websites to use technologies like CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) and JavaScript to do
more advanced things.
URL
(Uniform Resource Locator)
 To get to a web page, you can type the URL (Uniform Resource
Locator) in a browser. The URL, also known as the web address, tells
the browser exactly where to find the page. However, most of the
time, people get to a web page by following a link from a different
page or by searching for the page with a search engine.

an example of url

 The World Wide Web was created in 1989 by Tim Berners-Lee, a software engineer.
Before then, computers could communicate over the internet, but there were no web
pages.
Did you know ?
 Thefoundation of the internet began in 1969,
when the US Department of Defense created
ARPAnet, a project to allow military
personnel to communicate with each other in
an emergency.
 By 2012, the number of internet users
worldwide reached 2.4 billion— about one
third of the world's population.
 Tostore all of the information on the internet,
you would need over 1 billion DVDs or 200
million Blu-ray discs.
How is Internet used ?
 As the internet has grown it has developed into a
multifaceted tool with the vast range of uses it's
now easy to keep in touch with friends, publish your
own articles, or even watch your favourite TV shows
using the internet.
 Now we will talk about some of the ways the
internet is used today including blogs, social
networking, instant messaging, VOIP and media.
Finding information online
 The most common way to find information online is with the search engine all
you have to do is type in a few words, and the search engine will give you a list of
results that you can click on there are many different search engines that you can
use, but Google is the most popular one.
Intelligent Personal Assistants
 Intelligent Personal Assistants If you're using a mobile device, there
are some situations where it's not convenient to type a search into a
search engine. Instead, you can simply talk to your device's
intelligent personal assistant. One example is Siri, which comes pre-
installed on the iPhone 4S and the iPhone 5.
 With Siri, you can ask a question like "What's the weather today?” or
"Are there any Thai restaurants nearby?” Siri Askmg Sm a question
will then try to give you an answer. You can also use Siri to do other
things on your device such as setting up reminders. For example, you
could say, "Remind me to go to the dentist on Thursday."
 Using the Internet to Communicate

 The internet isn't just about finding information. It's also about connecting with
friends, family, and people you've never met before. Today, there are many different
ways to communicate online, including social networking, chat, VoIP, and blogging.
Social Networking
Social networking has become one of the main ways people keep in touch. Below are a
few of the most popular social networking sites:
1. Facebook is used by about one billion people. If you have family or friends that live
far away, you can use Facebook to keep up with their lives. You can also share things
you've found online that interest you.
2. Twitter lets you share brief messages (or "tweets") with the entire world, or with just
your circle of friends. By following people with similar interests, you can discover
new things that you wouldn't have found otherwise.
3. LinkedIn is a site that you can use for business networking. It allows you to connect
with other people in your field and find out about new job opportunities.
Chat and Instant Messaging
 Chat and instant messaging programs allow you to have conversations with your
friends or just write them a quick note. Two examples are Yahoo! Messenger and
Microsoft Messenger. Some sites, such as Gmail and Facebook, allow you to chat
within your browser.
Blogs
 Today, the average user has the ability to shape the web by adding to it. If you
have knowledge or interests that you're passionate about, you can create your own
blog and share your thoughts with the world.
 There are many sites like blogger.com and wordpress.com that let you create a
blog for free. You don't need any web design experience— most of the technical
stuff has already been created for you, and you can choose a predesigned template
that has the look and feel that you want.
Media on the Internet
 TV, radio, and the internet used to be completely separate things, but that's no
longer true with today's technology. You can now watch TV shows on your
computer, and you can connect to the internet on many TVs and DVD/Blu-ray
players. In addition, you can listen to online radio from all over the world, thus
granting you greater access to a more diverse range of media.

Streaming Media
TV and radio on the internet are examples of streaming media, which
means the media downloads while it’s playing so you don't have to wait
for it to download first.
Not all media is streaming. If
you've ever bought music on the iTunes store, you probably had to wait
for it to download before you could listen to it.
Media Players and Embedded Media
 Media is often embedded in a web page, which means that it plays within the web
browser. Other times, you'll use a separate program called a media player to play
it. Examples include Windows Media Player and iTunes. An iPod contains built-in
media player software that can play various types of files.
Online Media on Your TV
 You can now access online TV shows, movies, and music on your TV. Many newer TVs
are able to connect to an existing internet connection. If yours doesn't have this feature
built-in, you can buy a separate digital media receiver, which is a small device that
connects to your TV. Apple TV and Roku are two examples of digital media receivers.
Many game consoles, such as the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3, can also be used to access
online content.
