Recording Transcript

Ramli: Excuse me Mr Wong, I have a few questions about the Internet to ask you.

Mr Wong: Certainly, Ramli. What would you like to know?

Ramli: What is the Internet?

Mr Wong: It is the world's largest computer network, also known as a huge public information highway or infotainment superhighway.

Ramli: Who owns it sir?

Mr Wong: The Internet is not owned by any one company. It resembles the world's telephone system. Each portion is owned by someone and the overall system hangs together because of a variety of agreements among those organizations.

Ramli: What are the things that one can do on the Internet?

Mr Wong: Well, there is virtually no limit to what one can access on the Internet. Most people use it to send e-mail, form group chatlines, grab files from electronics libraries or cruise the World Wide Web.

Ramli: What does it take to get into the Internet?

Mr Wong: You need to have an Internet account or connection. Some types of Internet connections are: mail connections, which aren’t much good, dial-in terminal connections which require you to work with the command line or text menus, permanent connections and dial-in direct connections.

Ramli: What is the difference between a service provider and online services?

Mr Wong: A service provider is a company that sells access to the Internet. You dial into its computer, which connects you to the Internet. The online services, on the other hand, have all sorts of file libraries, chat services, news services and so on within the private areas of the service themselves.

Ramli: Thank you, Mr Wong. I guess that’s enough for today. I will try to remember what you have taught me.

Mr Wong: You’re welcome. Do feel free to ask me questions any time.
