DEVELOPMENT
JERWIN S. TAGUINOD, MIT
OBJECTIVES

■ Define HTML and World Wide Web;


■ Identify and explain the difference between
Internet and W3;
■ Identify and differentiate the types of Web site
■ Relates how the internet and W3 change
communication and information sharing.
WEB DEVELOPMENT

■ It seems like everyone's talking about the


Internet these days. But what is it really? How
does it work? How do you access it? And most
important, what can it do for you at work or at
home?
What is the Difference between the
Internet and World Wide Web?
■ Many people use the terms Internet and World
Wide Web (aka. the Web) interchangeably, but in
fact the two terms are not synonymous. The
Internet and the Web are two separate but related
things.
WHAT IS INTERNET?

■ The Internet is a massive network of networks, a


networking infrastructure. It connects millions of
computers together globally, forming a network
in which any computer can communicate with
any other computer as long as they are both
connected to the Internet.
What is The Web (World Wide Web)?

■ The World Wide Web, or simply Web, is a way


of accessing information over the medium of the
Internet. It is an information-sharing model that
is built on top of the Internet. The Web uses the
HTTP protocol, only one of the languages
spoken over the Internet, to transmit data.
The Internet and the World Wide Web
have a whole-to-part relationship.
■ The Internet is the large container, and the Web
is a part within the container. It is common in
daily conversation to abbreviate them as the
"Net" and the "Web", and then swap the words
interchangeably.
1: The Internet is a Big Collection of
Computers and Cables.
■ The Internet is named for "interconnection of
computer networks". It is a massive hardware
combination of millions of personal, business,
and governmental computers, all connected like
roads and highways.
Continuation…

■ The Internet started in the 1960's under the


original name "ARPAnet". ARPAnet was
originally an experiment in how the US military
could maintain communications in case of a
possible nuclear strike.
Continuation…

■ With time, ARPAnet became a civilian


experiment, connecting university mainframe
computers for academic purposes. As personal
computers became more mainstream in the
1980's and 1990's, the Internet grew
exponentially as more users plugged their
computers into the massive network.
Continuation…

■ Today, the Internet has grown into a public


spiderweb of millions of personal, government,
and commercial computers, all connected by
cables and by wireless signals.
Continuation…

■ No single person owns the Internet. No single


government has authority over its operations.
Some technical rules and hardware/software
standards enforce how people plug into the
Internet, but for the most part, the Internet is a
free and open broadcast medium of hardware
networking.
2: The Web Is a Big Collection of
HTML Pages on the Internet.
■ The World Wide Web, or "Web" for short, is a
massive collection of digital pages: that large
software subset of the Internet dedicated to
broadcasting content in the form of HTML
pages. The Web is viewed by using free software
called web browsers.
Continuation…

■ . Born in 1989, the Web is based on hypertext


transfer protocol, the language which allows you
and me to "jump" (hyperlink) to any other public
web page. There are over 65 billion public web
pages on the Web today.
What Kinds of Information are
Available?
■ Text documents
■ Graphics files (digitized photographs and artwork),
■ Files that contain digitized sound and video
■ Software
■ Interactive forums
■ "Chats," - in which you and other users type (and, in
some cases, speak) messages that are received by the
chat participants instantly.
How Do People Use the Internet?

■ Among the ways that users like you are taking


advantage of the Internet are:
■ Sharing research and business data among
colleagues and like-minded individuals.
■ Communicating with others and transmitting
files via E-mail.
How Do People Use the Internet?

■ Requesting and providing assistance with


problems and questions.
■ Marketing and publicizing products and services.
■ Gathering valuable feedback and suggestions
from customers and business partners.
What is the World Wide Web and what
makes it work?
■ The WWW incorporates all of the Internet
services above and much more. You can retrieve
documents, view images, animation, and video,
listen to sound files, speak and hear voice, and
view programs that run on practically any
software in the world, providing your computer
has the hardware and software to do these things.
What is the World Wide Web and what
makes it work?
■ When you log onto the Internet using Netscape
or Microsoft’s Internet Explorer or some other
browser, you are viewing documents on the
World Wide Web. The current foundation on
which the WWW functions is the programming
language called HTML.
■ HTML and other programming embedded
within HTML that makes possible Hypertext.
Hypertext is the ability to have web pages
containing links, which are areas in a page or
buttons or graphics on which you can click your
mouse button to retrieve another document into
your computer.
Browser

■ is a computer program that resides on your


computer enabling you to use the computer to
view WWW documents and access the Internet
taking advantage of text formatting, hypertext
links, images, sounds, motion, and other
features.
Example of web browsers:
■ Netscape and Internet Explorer are currently the
leading “graphical browsers” in the world
(meaning they facilitate the viewing of graphics
such as images and video and more).
■ Mozilla Firefox
■ Opera
■ Google Chrome
Search Engines

■ Software programs that uses the browsers and


enable the user to locate specific information on
the internet. Most operate by searching for
specific key words among the millions of sites
on the web.
