The World
Wide Web is truly worldwide. We all know
that electronic information passes thousands of miles in the World Wide Web in
a blink of an eye. But this hits home for this student for many reasons. As a
photographer I have posted several photos and videos to the web for media
outlets to use worldwide. These images or
videos are sent via an FTP site to a location here in the United States from
anywhere in the world. Gigabytes of data
are transported across continents and faster than other means of getting the
requested images to the desired location.
When we
started this blog for class I was unaware of the resources that were a part of
the “Blogger” website. After only
posting for a few weeks I noticed that I didn’t have many visits to my
page. However, an interesting utility is
the ability to see what web browser a visitor used to pull up the blog and even
more interesting from what country. As I mentioned I haven’t had many visitors,
only 58 page views, but my blog was visited from Turkey of all places. Granted it could be attributed to a simple
search through one of the several search engines looking for a few key
words. Still yet it’s interesting how
fast the World Wide Web truly is.
