What is the Internet?
The Internet is a network of networks, linking computers to computers sharing the TCP/IP
protocols. Each runs software to provide or "serve" information and/or to access and view
information.
The Internet is the transport vehicle for the information stored in files or documents on
another
computer. It can be compared to an international communications utility servicing computers.
It is
sometimes compared to a giant international plumbing system. The Internet itself does not
contain
information. It is a slight misstatement to say a "document was found on the Internet." It
would be
more correct to say it was found through or using the Internet. What it was found in (or on) is
one of
the computers linked to the Internet.
Now perform These operations:
Change the font type of the passage to Comic Sans MS.
Centre the heading, underline it, increase the font size to 20 & change the font
type to Algerian.
Move paragraph 1 below paragraph 2, such that paragraph 2 becomes
paragraph 1 & paragraph 1 becomes paragraph.
