computers networks are LAN.internet is WAN.\ninternet have a lot of computers inside,that each one has its own configuration,OS,protocols.\ncomputer networks have computers with defined configuration,OS and protocols.\ncomputer networks are alwayes available but internet(mostly) is not available without calling a link(dialup-ADSL-...)\ncomputer network is often use for file sharing and printer sharing and email.but internet is a huge source of every knowledge (it is accessed by internet browsers)

The computer is what each user CHOOSES it to be.  If you think or choose for it to be just porn, games and chat-rooms, that's exactly what it will be.  If it's a resource for information, a tool to express your imagination, or a means of communication to the outside world....well, that's your prerogative,too.

I typed in what ou asked on google and it is good.\n\nMany people use the terms Internet and World Wide Web (a.k.a. the Web) interchangeably, but in fact the two terms are not synonymous. The Internet and the Web are two separate but related things. \nThe Internet is a massive network of networks, a networking infrastructure. It connects millions of computers together globally, forming a network in which any computer can communicate with any other computer as long as they are both connected to the Internet. Information that travels over the Internet does so via a variety of languages known as protocols. \n\nThe World Wide Web, or simply Web, is a way of accessing information over the medium of the Internet. It is an information-sharing model that is built on top of the Internet. The Web uses the HTTP protocol, only one of the languages spoken over the Internet, to transmit data. Web services, which use HTTP to allow applications to communicate in order to exchange business logic, use the the Web to share information. The Web also utilizes browsers, such as Internet Explorer or Netscape, to access Web documents called Web pages that are linked to each other via hyperlinks. Web documents also contain graphics, sounds, text and video. \n\nThe Web is just one of the ways that information can be disseminated over the Internet. The Internet, not the Web, is also used for e-mail, which relies on SMTP, Usenet news groups, instant messaging and FTP. So the Web is just a portion of the Internet, albeit a large portion, but the two terms are not synonymous and should not be confused.

First you should learn about Internet and Information Tecnology.\nSecond its seems that it is bit bigger project, amature planing ca'nt do it,you should find some IT engineer to do this.\nI am sorry if i d'nt make any sense.

The internet is an amazing piece of technology that allows you to communicate with people (strangers and friends alike) all around the world, which simply isn't possible and/or practical with telephones. In this sense, the internet builds bridges, which helps connect vast groups of people thay wouldn't otherwise communicate with each other.  Examples: myspace, chatrooms, online forums, yahoo answers\n\nHowever, the internet can also builds walls.  Sitting in front of a computer isolates you from local people.  You can lack real human contact, which is important for a fulfilling life.  Also, nowadays, people can do almost everything online: check grades, banking, grocery shopping & other kinds of shopping, etc.  The convenience of doing everything online prevents people from going out to a store or a bank and interacting with people face-to-face.\n\nTo conclude, the internet is both a curse and a blessing.  It can work for you or against you, and this depends on how you choose to use it.

You need a human friend to help you figure it out together. I'm not trying to be a smart jerk. Just being helpful. don't resolve a computer problem with another computer. It's just crazy these days, isn't it?

Well, the internet is a wonderous thing. Like you said, you can use it for almost anything, and the answer to everything you want to know is right at your fingertips. The likelihood for all of us is that we will become dependant on it in some way. Net addiction is a real and serious thing, and some people do let it take over their lives. When one finds one's self neglecting real life friends and obligations it's time to step back from the PC for a breather. I find it easiest to turn off the computer completely so I'm not so tempted to sit down and have one quick game every time I have to come into the computer room for something.

Uh...why is this in computer and internet?

Well, your on the internet right now.  Why don't you learn some new things on the internet?

Computer System & Networking will give you a good understanding of computer hardware and computer networking. You will know how to trouble shoot hardware, software, and network related problems. However, if you would really like to learn about all the inner workingsof a computer and how they inner relate to one another then I would suggest pursuing something in Computer Science or Computer Engineering. In my personal opinion this would be a better choice.

Internet : \n\n                        The Internet is the worldwide, publicly accessible network of interconnected computer networks that transmit data by packet switching using the standard Internet Protocol (IP). It is a "network of networks" that consists of millions of smaller domestic, academic, business, and government networks, which together carry various information and services, such as electronic mail, online chat, file transfer, and the interlinked Web pages and other documents of the World Wide Web.\n\nContrary to some common usage, the Internet and the World Wide Web are not synonymous: the Internet is a collection of interconnected computer networks, linked by copper wires, fiber-optic cables, wireless connections, etc.; the Web is a collection of interconnected documents and other resources, linked by hyperlinks and URLs. The World Wide Web is accessible via the Internet, as are many other services including e-mail, file sharing, and others described below.\n\n\nCreation of the Internet :\n\nThe Internet is the worldwide, publicly accessible network of interconnected computer networks that transmit data by packet switching using the standard Internet Protocol (IP). It is a "network of networks" that consists of millions of smaller domestic, academic, business, and government networks, which together carry various information and services, such as electronic mail, online chat, file transfer, and the interlinked Web pages and other documents of the World Wide Web.\n\nThe USSR's launch of Sputnik spurred the United States to create the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA, later known as the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA) in February 1958 to regain a technological lead. ARPA created the Information Processing Technology Office (IPTO) to further the research of the Semi Automatic Ground Environment (SAGE) program, which had networked country-wide radar systems together for the first time. J. C. R. Licklider was selected to head the IPTO, and saw universal networking as a potential unifying human revolution.\n\nIn 1950, Licklider moved from the Psycho-Acoustic Laboratory at Harvard University to MIT where he served on a committee that established MIT Lincoln Laboratory. He worked on the SAGE project. In 1957 he became a Vice President at BBN, where he bought the first production PDP-1 computer and conducted the first public demonstration of time-sharing.\n\nLicklider recruited Lawrence Roberts to head a project to implement a network, and Roberts based the technology on the work of Paul Baran who had written an exhaustive study for the U.S. Air Force that recommended packet switching (as opposed to Circuit switching) to make a network highly robust and survivable. After much work, the first node went live at UCLA on October 29, 1969 on what would be called the ARPANET, one of the "eve" networks of today's Internet. Following on from this, the British Post Office, Western Union International and Tymnet collaborated to create the first international packet switched network, referred to as the International Packet Switched Service (IPSS), in 1978. This network grew from Europe and the US to cover Canada, Hong Kong and Australia by 1981.\n\nThe first TCP/IP wide area network was operational by 1 January 1983, when the United States' National Science Foundation (NSF) constructed a university network backbone that would later become the NSFNet. (This date is held by some to be technically that of the birth of the Internet.) It was then followed by the opening of the network to commercial interests in 1985. Important, separate networks that offered gateways into, then later merged with, the NSFNet include Usenet, Bitnet and the various commercial and educational X.25 Compuserve and JANET. Telenet (later called Sprintnet), was a large privately-funded national computer network with free dialup access in cities throughout the U.S. that had been in operation

sometimes people haven't been trained to be polite and other times people use the net to be asses because they know here they can be the opposite of what hey are. They may be using this forum to vent or suffer from low self esteem. Eveyone's not like that sweetie.....keep hope alive!!

Awww that's so sweet honey!! I think that it's easy for people to dismiss the validity of others in cyberspace....but at the other end of the computer is a human being, I think it's perfectly sweet that you think of your YA friends.  I have met some fantastic people on here and I don't count them as less valuable because it's the internet.  (((((hug)))))

I am not a computer pro, but my personal opinion is that the computer/internet has yet to be perfected.  Some of it is just too hard to comprehend!  Put it in plain language please!  Try asking Yahoo a question and wait and wait to see if you get an answer that is understandable.\nBoo!  Hiss!
