WORLDWIDE WEB SITES for Understanding Business and the Internet -

The Internet and You -

The Internet is a powerful force, and we had better learn how to use it or the World will pass us by. The Internet is the fastest-growing medium in history, like it or not, it will affect you and those around you at home and on the job.

What is the Internet -

The Internet got its start in the late 1960's with the arrival of the UNIX operating system. Then the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency funded research into a fault tolerant network that could withstand nuclear attack.

What is the Internet Now -

The Internet today is a large network of computers connected together for the purpose of sharing information. The Internet links millions of computers in countries throughout the world.

What the Internet can do for You -

The Internet today is becoming a fast avenue of on-line communications and commerce. You can use the Internet to send and receive E-Mail. There are chat rooms to visit and you can join in on conversations that may interest you. You can listen to music. The possibilities are endless.

Where the Internet will be Tomorrow -

People and Businesses will have full interactive video in real time with groups of people from all over the globe interacting in virtual reality environments.

E-Mail -

E-Mail is the most common use of the Internet today. An E-Mail message is essentially a letter that gets delivered electrically. The Internet acts as a giant electronic Post Office, delivering E-Mail messages to users throughout the world.

What is an Internet address -

Every computer system connected directly to the Internet has a unique address or URL (URL is a Universal Resource Locator) This can be a number represented in four parts joined by periods (149.32.345.170) or it can be represented in words. Example: www.onramp.net The Internet address is used by your Browser to find users, files and other resources connected to a computer system. You can type this in manually in the Location box or use a search engine as described later.

What is the World Wide Web -

The World Wide Web is a collection of information stored in Hypertext files on various computers on the Internet. The Hypertext files that make up the World Wide Web are called Web Pages. To view information in a Web Page you must use a Web Browser (MS Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator) The Web browser program transfers the hypertext file (http) to your computer system for viewing.

What is a Home Page -

If your computer is on the Internet, you can set up Hypertext files that can be displayed by users with an Internet browser. These files can contain Hypertext links to other files on the World Wide Web. By setting up these files and publishing that fact to the Internet community, you have set up what is known as a Web Site.

What is a Search Engine -

Search engines utilize software agents often called Robots or Spiders. These agents are programmed to constantly "crawl" the web in search of new updated pages. They will essentially go from URL to URL until they have visited every Web site on the Internet.
To run a search engine such as Yahoo, Alta Vista, Web Crawler, Infoseek, Excite etc. go into a search engine of your choice and type a word or words to start your search. The search engine will pull up all web pages that it has indexed containing information on the word or words.

Bookmarks -

When you find a Web site that you like and would probably want to return to, you can add it to your Bookmark list. By doing this, you can then return to that Web site by clicking on its name in your Bookmark list instead of typing it in or going to a search engine.

How to choose an Internet Provider (ISP) -

When you are ready to start using the Internet, you must first choose and get setup with an Internet Service Provider. When choosing which ISP to use, look at all your options. You should look for an ISP that has a local phone number to connect to so that you do not have nay long distance charges and the ISP should have a local office. The ISP should provide unlimited access for the monthly fee charged and should have a reasonable setup fee with no charge for the software. Remember, a high price does not always mean better service and a low price does not mean best value. A reasonable expectation is around $18 to $25 per month.

The Internet - Not a Perfect World -

Remember, the Internet is not a perfect world, in fact it is far from it. This communications thoroughfare cannot be tagged the Information Super Highway. It's current structure is much more comparable to a Dirt Road with many pot-holes. Needless to say, it is improving as each minute passes.
