Hi All,
Am slowly getting use to this blog thing and have even managed a way of including my favourite artist Salvador Dali as an application - fabulous!
Today's lecture focused on the 'networks' and the origin of the internet and the world wide web (which, unknown to me are completely different things). We were told that the first network, or 'computer' was invented in the 1800's by Charles Babbidge and backed or I guess 'funded' by Lady Byron - who was seen as the 'spark' that set this whole crazy virtual world into motion!
The whole concept of the world wide web, the internet and the virtual world is so indepth and intricate and I find it a little confusing. We got a bit 'techy' during class and learnt about firwalls, packages and networks - amazing fascinating stuff.
Today's task involves everybody's favourite resource - Wikipedia! We were asked to research two topics that we know alot about and make sure that the Wikipedia authors had gotten it right.
My chosen topics were Amnesty International and the Saffron Spice - check out my two blogs below for further info!
Until Next Time.
