Describe the basic operation of the Internet?
The Internet is basically a hierarchy that allows any Internet connected device in one geographic location, talk to another Internet connected device in another geographic location. The way that the information is transmitted varies greatly, and in some countries, wireless ham radios are even used to transmit email.
When you log into a web site, you actually send a command to a distant server telling it to download a page of data to your PC. Your web browser packages that command into a packet labeled with the address of the server storing the page that you want. Your PC sends the packet to your modem (or terminal adapter), which transmits it across your telephone or other connection to your Internet Service Provider or ISP.
The ISP actually operates as a message forwarder. At the ISP, your message gets combined with those from other PCs and sent through a higher speed connection (at least you should hope it is a high speed connection) to yet another concentrator that eventually sends your packet to one of five regional centers (located in New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and Maryland). There the major Internet carriers exchange signals, routing the packets from your modem to the carrier that haul them to their destination based on their Internet address.
One of the weaknesses of today's Internet is its addressing. All of the Internet addresses are global. From the address itself, neither you nor a computer can tell where that address is or, more importantly, how to connect to it. The routers in the Internet regional centers maintain tables to help quickly send packets to the proper address. Without such guidance, packets wander throughout the world looking for the right address. Worse, the current Internet naming convention which assigns 32-bit addresses, doesn't have the breadth necessary to accommodate all future applications of the Internet. Some experts believe that the Internet will simply run out of available addresses sometime around the turn of the century-whether the shortfall occurs before or after the millennium depends on how pessimistic an expert you ask.
Internet addresses are separate and distinct from the domain names used as Uniform Resource Locators (URLs) through which you specify Web pages. The domain names give you a handle with a natural-language look. Internet addresses are, like everything in computing, binary codes.
Even domain names are running short. Finding a clever and meaningful name for a web site is a challenge that's ever increasing. Believing that one of the problems in the shortage of URLs has been the relatively few suffixes available, one of the coordinating agencies for Internet names, the International Ad Hoc Committee, proposed seven additional suffixes in addition to the six already in use in the U.S. and the national suffixes used around the world (.US for United States, .CA for Canada, and so on).

Msn is safe because your child or yourself can only add contacts that they want to add, also if anybody is being verry nasty to your child if your child is on you can block the contact from seeing or contacting your child. If somebody is abusing you or your child you can report them to the MSN team.
Try it out and make sure you have the right privacy settings. Many children who use msn are young, and it has helped them to stay in touch with others. Only add people you know, and delete and block someone if they are mean to you! MsN is great but be safe!

How does the internet benefit us?
It has given us more time and location insensitive communication, purchasing, finance management, work, and information gathering. Plus greater access to pooled knowledge and increasingly tailored services and products.
However, the internet has not completely ruled out the relevance of time and location. While we can now receive and respond to messages from friends and family regardless of where and what they're doing, there are still many things we can only read on paper, like old books. We now have better access to pooled knowledge. Think a pair of ski boots look awesome? Well now through websites like Amazon.com you can find out if they are as awesome as they look by reading what actually owners of the boots think. This type of public feedback is forcing companies to provide us with better products.
While we can order shoes online we have not yet perfected the service of ensuring the shoes are a good fit. Somethings still require us to be there in person.
Specific services include:
- Internet banking (no longer need to be there in person or call during business hours to change something with your bank account)
- Online purchasing (no longer need to be there in person or call during business hours to purchase something)
- Increased pooled knowledge (no longer dependent on a friend or relative telling you if something is good)
- More and better products (as customers can better communicate their needs companies can now better tailor products and recognize demand for the creation of new products)
- Time insensitive communication (email, Facebook)
- Interests shaped newsfeeds (you no longer need to skim newspapers to find stories that interests you. Now you can tell Google to send you stories that match you specified interests)
- Speeder access to information (Google search engine)

How does one go about registering a new domain name?
There are two principal steps to make your website on the Internet: the first is registering/booking a domain name and then selecting a web host. The web host is the guts of any website; this is where you build and publish your pages, build purchase fillings, insert service and preserve your site.
A domain name builds the address of your site and can end in .com, .net, .org, .info, .us, .biz, .tv, .me, .co, etc. Links to the most popular domain registrars where you can rent domain names in one-year increments are listed below in the "Related Links" section.
Most domain extensions can be registered for $10 or less per year. You can register your domain for as long as you wish. Many registrars offer discounts if you make a long-term commitment, purchasing the rights to a domain name for multiple years.
Ans:-
For registering domain name i will apply here at ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Number), responsible for managing the Internet Protocol address spaces (IPv4 and IPv6) and assignment of address blocks to regional Internet registries, for maintaining registries of Internet protocol identifiers.
Except this i can approach registrar appointed by ICANN for registration of domain name.
To register a domain name one must first find a unique handle. The domain can then be purchased from a domain management company. These companies typically charge an ongoing fee. If the fee is unpaid the domain will once again become available for purchase.
W3C stands for: World Wide Web Consortium. They make guidelines for the internet and the way it works.
In 1994, five years after inventing the World Wide Web, Sir Tim Berners-Lee founded the World Wide Web Consortium(W3C) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
The mission of W3C is: "To lead the World Wide Web to its full potential by developing protocols and guidelines that ensure long-term growth for the Web." Note, these are "guidelines" not rules - yet.
Check your website to see if you pass or fail . Enter your URL :
http://validator.w3.org/
Being W3C compliant helps ensure that the look and feel of your website remains very similar when accessed from any browser from different platforms like Mac or Unix/Linux or even when accessed from handheld devices like PDAs or cell phones.
In addition, compliance ensures accessibility for the disabled. More and more countries are adopting this as law. Recently damages were awarded to a blind user when he filed a lawsuit against the owners of a website he found to be inaccessible. This will become commonplace.
So after checking your website did you pass or fail ? Most likely you didn't pass, less than 7% of all websites are W3C compliant. Go back to your developer and ask him to code to the guidelines and don't accept anything less.
The take away: The guidelines will become rules. The rules will become law. Whether you have a website now or are planning on getting one soon, make W3C compliance a must.

Where the files will go when you are deleting it from the computer?
They stay on the computer, but the space they used is marked as being free to be used by other files. So as you create new files and save other files, they will start to use the space where the deleted files are, and eventually they will be completely overwritten. Because they are still there, this is why it is still possible to get some deleted files back if you try to do so soon after they are deleted. The more time you leave the more likely it is that the space they are in will be used by other files, making it impossible to get them back.
