What is the
Internet?
The Internet is millions of
computers all over the world
connected together so they
can exchange information.
The Internet is also known as the
information superhighway
because you can get information
on almost anything.
The World Wide Web
is part of the Internet.
People use the World Wide Web to
get information and sell or buy things.
The World Wide Web is made up of
web pages linked together like a
spider’s web.
Web pages
contain
information in the
form of text,
pictures, sound,
and video.
A group of web
pages that give
information on the
same topic make
up a web site.
People also use the
Internet to communicate
with one another.
Electronic mail (e-mail) is
another part of the Internet. It
allows people all over the world to
communicate with each other by
sending electronic messages
through their computers.
How do I get on the
Internet?
An Internet Service Provider (ISP)
is a company that allows you to
connect to the Internet.
What if I don’t have a
computer?
You can get on the
Internet at a public library
or at your school.
