The Internet started out as a limited network called the ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency
Network). It was a network of computers that allowed communication even if computer became non- functioning.
It was the academic and scientific community that adopted Internet, using a protocol called TCP/IP. TCP/IP
allows a number of different network computers to be connected together. This is called the Internet. The Internet
allows the creation the World Wide Web or the Web for short. The Webconsists of Internet sites that allow data to
be shared by others. Aside from making the Web possible, the Internet also makes e-mail, chat rom and filesharing and telephoning possible. It even allows people to watch media and play games.
The Web can be read in a browser. A browser is simply a software program that uses HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer
Protocol) data transmission. This will allow you to view Web pages. HTTP let you browser read the text, graphics,
animation, video and music that are on the Web page. It also enables you to click on a link on the page using the
mouse. The links on a Web page that guide you to go from one Web page to another are called hyperlinks. A Web
page usually contains many hyperlinks so that you can “browse” the Internet. It is much like reading a book. You
can go from page to page and get new information. One example of a browser is Internet Explorer. In the address
box of your browser, you can type in an address called a URL for “uniform resource locator”.
To be able to use the Internet, you must have a computer with an Internet connection and software that lets you
view that Web pages. Internet connection is called a dial-up connection. It needs the use of your telephone to
connect your computer to an Internet service. A faster type of connection is called broadband. This requires a cable
or some other equipment. If you turn on the computer with a broadband connection, it connects you the Internet at a
time.
