Khan Academy

How the Internet Works

What I have learned in the videos is how the internet has changed the many lives of people in our lifetime. I learned that before there were web browsers, there were many machines that transferred data in order to receive what you want on your screen. I also learned that the internet is made up of a bunch of one's and zero's. Another thing I learned is that the internet has many servers and without the servers the internet would not be able to work because in each server that is where the IP address's are located.
