Tutorial 2 and 3

Tutorial two and tutorial three continue on with learning about the internet and how to communicate with it. Email is the topic for tutorial two. It breaks the whole process down so you are able to grasp the concept and know exactly what to do. An interesting thing that I learned about was the whole “Netiquette” phrase. I had no idea that there were accepted rules for proper behavior on the internet. Tutorial 3 is about using search engines and how to properly enter a search term that will bring you back the maximum result. Another thing that was learned in this tutorial was the wildcard character. I had never heard of that before but thought that was pretty cool that you can perform multiple searches with the same word.

Tutorial 1

In our assignment for tutorial one, we had to do some research on different internet browsers and try to figure out which one was the best out there. It is hard to differentiate and choose between all the internet browsers out there. Another big thing I learned was the extent that cookies use on your computer. I never knew that they could research you and find out what your email is and other personal information. But cookies also have their benefits for your own home use. They can store info on your favorite sites and make searching the web a lot easier.

Appendix A

In appendix A, we first learned about how and why the internet got started.From the internet’s first days to dial up to now the more frequent broadband.How the military used this unique method to stay connected with other military outposts and also to communicate.Appendix A also talked much about the hardware one needs to be able to connect to the internet, such as the cables, modems.Also about the different networks that can be setup in an office or even your own home, allowing you to easily communicate with employees or other family members.What I found interesting about the appendix a is the use of the internet first by the military.
