Introduction To Internet and Basic Web Design
Introduction To Internet and Basic Web Design
1972 - The first Telnet specification, “Ad hoc Telnet Protocol” was
submitted as RFC 318 (RFC-Request for Comments).

on commercial traffic on its backbone.
The History of
Internet
• The most important technological development in
the history of the web, besides the creation of the
web itself, was the development of graphical
browsers in the early 90s. Beginning with NCSA's
Mosaic and its evolution into Netscape's Navigator
and Microsoft's Internet Explorer, these programs
allowed users to browse the resources on the web
in an extremely user friendly environment.
• The Net started to move away from UNIX and other science
application languages to Windows-based interfaces that were
easy for the public to use.

Ways of Internet
Utility
• With all the publicity and television commercials, you might
conclude that the most popular use of the Internet is the
World Wide Web.
Why e-mail ?
• Using e-mail, you can quite often get hold of people who
might otherwise take hours or days to get in touch with. Not
only that, but by using e-mail, you can contact them on your
time--no more waiting on hold or wondering whether you've
been disconnected.
• Faxes are nice, but over long distances, the costs can add
up. What if you had a quick and easy way to transmit
instantly any type of file, document, or computer program
electronically? Well, you do. With most e-mail programs,
you can encode and "attach" documents to e-mail
messages.
A Public Forum
Chatting
• At some point, you may want to remove the time delay between
sending and receiving e-mail. You may want to converse directly with
another person or have the ability to address a group of people.
• Today the most popular chatting services and tools are IRC and ICQ.
What Is IRC and How
Does It Work?
• IRC (Internet Relay Chat) was developed in the late 1980s
by Jarkko Oikarinen. It consists of a network of chat servers
located all over the globe. Each server is connected via the
network, allowing users to have real-time communications.
Finding People
• Even if you could gather all the numbers, by the time you
published it, 10 percent of them would be wrong,
disconnected, or changed.

What is Web?
• The Web (World Wide Web) consists of information
organized into Web pages containing text and graphic
images.
• It contains hypertext links, or highlighted keywords
and images that lead to related information.
• A collection of linked Web pages that has a common
theme or focus is called a Web site.
• The main page that all of the pages on a particular
Web site are organized around and link back to is
called the site’s home page.
What is a
client/server system?
• A server system is a very keen way of distributing
information across information systems like a local
area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN),
or the Internet.
• The answer is yes and no. Actually, in some cases, the web
browser will display a document exactly the way it receives it
from the web server. For example, if the document requested
is an image, the web browser will display it directly. Similarly,
plain text files will be displayed just as they are sent.
