Module two

In module two, I have done a lot of things I never did before. I learned how to make a domain name as well as looking one up on the http://network-tools.com/ website. I honestly never even heard of a domain name and I took a lot of interest in thoroughly learning about this.

As well as the Facebook discussion. When responding to my fellow class mates and making my own discussion, I quickly realized that net neutrality is a big topic that everyone is starting to comment on. Paying for the internet to run faster and for different add ons, seems like such a far stretch when I don't see these providers making an effort to keep their promises for their customers.

Participation in module two, I believe was engaging. I tried to keep up and read what everyone's opinions were and what they thought about net neutrality. I find it interesting when participating in the online discussions to get a better understanding for different sides.

As far as new terminology goes, I learned quite a bit.
Four words that I learned through out this module along with the definitions are:

• Domain name: Part of a network address that someone has, that identifies it as belonging to a particular domain.
• Cache: Same type of items in a collected area stored in a hidden or non accessible place.
• Cookies: Small files that are used to store data for a certain website or client.
• Servers: provide data and services to users and those that enable Internet Communication.

Their is one article that helped me understand this information thoroughly. Below it is posted.

I really enjoyed this learning module, especially the word cloud.
