We can't even pass a day without internet. Whatever, our lovely miss started our class with the defining the Internet which is the largest network in the world that connects people or organization all over the world. Again internet is a global system interconnected networks that uses the stander internet protocol to serve billions of user. Afterwards, she also briefed us about the uses of internet. We use internet in various work in our daily life such as searching information, business partner, shopping by on-line and so on.

Afterwards, in 1969 internet created the ARPANET. Furthermore, in 1986 USA national science foundation initiated the improvement of national science foundation network and it's also present network. After that, she informed us about the service of the internet. There are many types of service in the internet such as email, world wide web, protocol, instant massaging, chat room, IR and so on. Among them one of the important service in the internet is email which is electronic mail. People are the users they use it to create, send, receive and to store the email. As a great example by the yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail or MSN people can contribute with others from one corner to another. 

     As a next part our lovely miss started with the internet service which is all about the web. This web was created by Tem Berners Lee. It's contains hypertext links, or highlighted key words and images  that lead to related information. A web is organized using documents is called web pages. Whatever, a collection of linked web pages that has a common theme or focus is called a web site. Again the web site is collection of the documents.

Afterwards she also taught us about the uniform resource locators, in which to identify a web pages exact location, web browsers rely on uniform resource locator (URL). In a URL there are four part that tell the web browsers transfer protocol, the domain name, path name of the folder and the name of the file. To make understand us properly she gave us example of the HTML. To access the web we have to connect the internet then internet service provider then we need special software to called a browser to access the web. As agrat example of web browser such as Google chorme, Firebox, Opera mini, Safari, Internet explorer or Bing and so on.
