          92                          I can give you pictures of my birthday party in a pen drive. But how can

                                     I give these pictures quickly to my cousin who lives in another city?

                                      When files need to be frequently exchanged, or if the computers

                                     are not located near each other, this task can become quite tedious.
                                     To  overcome  this  challenge,  computers  are  connected  to  form  a
                                     network. Once connected, they can share data and files efficiently
                                     without delay, often through emails. Now, let me explain what an

                                     e-mail is and how to use it.

                  worldwide. It allows us to access and share information over this network. Internet

                  contains  billions  of  websites  that  provide  information.  These  websites  consist  of
                  related web pages. Websites are located using a unique address known as the website

                  address or Universal Resource Locator (URL).
