Write a paragraph or two, on four points made by Marissa Mayer, that you think were the most interesting or significant for business. There are no right or wrong answers here, I just want your opinion. Part 2 – History of the Internet I have an expectation that you do some of your own research into the history of the Internet. The World Wide Web (WWW) is just one part of the Internet, but a very significant part. The Internet has been used for a long time now. When I first started working at 16, I was employed by Elders Smith Goldsborough Mort in Adelaide, (now Elders Ltd). We had telex machines that were used to send invoicing data and other information to head office. Elders had a mainframe computer called FRED (I only remember it meaning frigging ridiculous electronic machine). Fred had its own air conditioned room, and a team of operators. It probably wasn’t as powerful as a sub-notebook today. Do you use Outlook express or another ‘mail client’ to access your email at home? Or you may use Internet Relay Chat? Or a news reader? This was very common just a few years ago, but a lot of these functions are now integrated into the world wide web (www). It is important to realise the Internet is much more than the WWW although many people tend to think they are the same thing. The WWW uses the Internet. 2) Please watch the Bill Joy video, and it will give you a good background to the Internet and particularly to the emergence of the World WIde Web. From the video – please answer (on your blog page) – a) So what are the 6 webs? b) Could there be more? c) What does it mean for business? |
