The World Wide Web and Websites

The World Wide Web (abbreviated WWW or the Web) is an information space where documents and other web resources are identified by Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), interlinked by hypertext links, and can be accessed via the Internet.

Internet and Network

What is Internet?

The Internet is the global system of interconnected computer networks that use the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to link devices worldwide.

Brief History of Internet

The Internet started in the 1960s as a way for government researchers to share information which was known as ARPANET (Advanced Research Projects Agency Network), the network that ultimately evolved into what we now know as the Internet. January 1, 1983 is considered the official birthday of the Internet.

Linux and its Basic Operations

What is Linux?

Just like Windows XP, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Mac OS X, Linux is an operating system. An operating system is software that manages all of the hardware resources associated with your desktop or laptop. To put it simply – the operating system manages the communication between your software and your hardware. Without the operating system (often referred to as the “OS”), the software wouldn’t function.
But Linux also is different from other operating systems because Linux is open source software. The code used to create Linux is free and available to the public to view, edit, and—for users with the appropriate skills—to contribute to.
