It includes several high-bandwidth data lines that comprise the Internet «backbone.» And these lines are connected to major Internet hubs that distribute data to other locations. Locations such as ISPs and web servers.
  • HTML: Stands for «Hypertext Markup Language.» HTML is the language used to create webpages. «Hypertext» refers to the hyperlinks that an HTML page may contain. «Markup language» refers to the way tags are used to define the page layout and elements within the page.
  • Browser: Browser is an application used to access and view websites. Some browsers include Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Apple Safari.
  • Search Engine: Google and Yahoo for example  are search engines. They index millions of sites on the Web, so that websurfers easily can find websites with the information we want. By creating large databases of websites (based on titles, keywords, and the text in the pages), search engines can locate relevant websites when users enter search terms or phrases.
