Internet was functional on September 1969 and it is for allowing scientists at different locations to share information.

Internet has grown from 4 nodes to more than 200 million host nodes over the past 41 years. The Internet is a public, cooperative and independent network.

One can either use the slow-speed technology or the high-speed connection (ISP, OSP and Wireless Service Provider) to access the Internet.

One should choose the broadband connection that will best meet one's Internet connection needs.

Each computer or device connected to the Internet has an IP address that uniquely identifies them.

A World Wide Web (WWW) has a worldwide collection of electronic documents.

Handheld computers and cellular telephones access the Web using a micro browser that displays web pages that contain mostly text.

A subject directory let you find information by clicking links rather than entering keywords. Search engine is also called a keyword.

Guidelines for evaluating the value of a website are Affiliation, Audience, Authority, Content, Currency, Design and Objectivity.

Netiquette is a code of acceptable behaviors users should follow while on the Internet.

The Golden Rule is to treat others as they would like them to treat you.

I like the IS a lot as in 1 lesson I have learnt so much on computer.

I enjoyed the lesson a lot. Thank You, Mr. Kent Cheong for teaching me so much!
