What is the world wide web? - Twila Camp

Показать описание

The world wide web is used every day by millions of people for everything from checking the weather to sharing cat videos. But what is it exactly? Twila Camp describes this interconnected information system as a virtual city that everyone owns and explains how it's organized in a way that mimics our brain's natural way of thinking.

I just recently realized that the outro sound of TedEd is just a reversed sound effect of their intro

From everything from checking the weather, ordering food, and chatting with friends, to raising funds, sharing news, or *_starting a revolution_*

amazing explaining, thanks a lot . a try to give a brief (but it surly doesn't make you skip the video): -
• Internet: interconnected networks communicate with each other, and it is used to access WWW
• We may think in WWW as a set of skyscrapers (it is called originally web servers) which these skyscrapers are connected always to internet and these which stores, retrieve and manipulate the data of websites  when someone creates a website, he has to rent a room in one of these skyscrapers (webserver) in order to arrange the data of his website to enable other users access his website.
• The people who own these skyscrapers (webservers) called web hosts  but anyone can build his web server (remember these web servers are just computers, but building these you need to know about hardware and software)
• The website domain is the address which anyone can access through it
• The information of the website is written in code of programming languages  why when we access a website, we don’t see this code but GUI? Because web browser which is responsible for converting this code to GUI. (browsers as translators)

Hi Ted! this video is great!
But can I ask you how does the world wide web work or related with the client server?

I would love to hear this guy's voice on another Ted.

I have seen some other figures rather than www like for example my school has its own website for homeworks etc. But my school address starts with sxd. Instead of www. Are these the same thing that we just dont need to pay a internet service provider as shown in this video?
