When you click 'Send,' that email is shot through the Internet tubes of society and lands on another computer somewhere on the Internet. Okay, you’ve typed out that shiny email to your boss and are about to send it off. Sounds about right, but how does it actually do that? When you send an email, you’re using the Internet to move that photo of your dog from one computer to another. Now here’s where it gets a little more complicated. The second aspect of the Internet is how that data actually moves from one place to another. Like speaking with someone in Chinese on the phone - the connection is there - but if you don’t understand the language, then there’s no way you’ll ever be able communicate. Without that protocol, even if two computers were connected with a cable, they wouldn’t be able to understand each other. This language allows your computer to send and receive information to and from another computer. The Internet is a way for one computer to talk to another - an internet lingo.

If you don’t, stay calm and I’ll explain. Well, simply put, it’s a big huge network that’s changing humanity. I’m sure you’ve heard of the Internet… right? Duh.
