Lecture
Today in lecture we looked at internet vs web plus historical perspective of the web.
The difference between the two is that on the net you find computers and the connections are cables between the computers. Internet was first to arrive and it was back in 1965 and in those days they used dial up telephone line.
Then years later the web arrived. On the web you get information and the connections are hypertext links. It was developed by Tim Berners-Lee in 1989 reason for this is to make sharing information easier.
We then looked at web protocol, browsers and the World Wide Web.
The web is information in stored on to the computers around the world so it can be accessed throughout the universe.
The followings are the World Wide Web Protocols
TCP/IP – Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol
It is used to communicate between each other.
HTTP – Hypertext Transfer Protocol
This is the visible part of the Internet.
DNS – Domain Name System
This is a source of the www.
URL – Uniform/Universal Resource Locator
The Web Browsers is a program that allows users to access and look at the pages of the World-wide Web.

The first task is to visit these three website.www.martinlutherking.org
www.haggishunt.scotsman.com www.molossia.org.
We suppose to do this exercise with a partner with a partner but since we didn’t have class we had to do it alone.
The four clues that are noticeable are currency, objective, accuracy and authority
Then afterwards before visiting the website we are asked to write down in our learning log what we expect to find based on the URL. What I expect from the site is to see a picture of MLK, and his famous speech such as “I Have a Dream” and also a brief history of him.
After visiting the website I was shocked by some of the things they said about him. For example they said that the day before his death he hired prostitute and beat them to death. By reading that comment I realized that this webpage is fake because I have a general knowledge of him and also this page does not have author, publisher or the date of first published.
