My First IS Lesson : The Internet & WWW

It's was Wednesday. We had our IS lesson during the last 2 lesson. When I first went in the computer lab. Whoa... I love the chairs. It's so fun... You can zoom here, zoom there. OK, forget about the rolling chairs, let get down to business.

First our IS teacher, Mr Kent show us a video clip. If you want to see the video go to this website http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Q75KhAeqJg&feature=related. After that, Mr Kent talked about the history of Internet. It started from 4 host nodes then in 1984, there were more than 1000 host nodes. Today, more than 200 million host nodes. So you see how fast it is.

Mr Kent also told us what are the ways to access to Internet and there are three ways, that is using ISP, OSP and Wireless Internet Service Provider. I have alsso learnt what is an IP number and a domain name. Before they use domain name, they use IP numbers. NOw, most of the people use domain name.

Next, we learnt that there are more than 1 program to get into the Internet. There are a lot of them, like Internet Exprorer, Mozila Firefox, Netscape, Opera and Safari. I have also learnt some words, like www ( world wide web), URL (Uniform Resource Locator) and many more. I also learnt what is links and portals.

Mr Kent use a clip to teach us. If you want the clip go to this website http://www.docstoc.com/docs/21243409/TheInternetandWWW.

Hope you Enjoy!!! (^@^)
