Browse the World Wide Web
The World Wide Web (also known as the Web) is the fastest growing part of the Internet. You 
view information on the Web by using software called a Web browser. You can view color images,
animation, and video, and even hear sound. The “documents” that you view on the Web are known 
as Web pages, a collection of which is called a Web site. Web pages and sites contain links to other pages
and sites. When you click a word or image that has been designated as a link, your browser
automatically displays the contents of the linked page. Below is a portion of the “home page” of the
Apple Computer Web site.
E-mail
You use electronic mail, or e-mail, to exchange information in much the same way that you use paper
mail, except that e-mail is faster and more convenient. It is as easy to send a message to a single
recipient as it is to send the same message to many recipients. You can also attach entire electronic 
files to e-mail.
