Imagine spiders crawling around a virtual web! Welcome to the internet. A series of eight short, entertaining videos explain how the internet works. The series begins with an explanation of just what the internet is. Subsequent topics look at Wires, Cables, and Wifi; IP Addresses and DNS; Packets, Routing, and Reliability; HTTP and HTML; and Encryption and Public Keys. Other videos look at Cybersecurity and Crime and explain how Search works. The narrators do a great job of using illustrations, animations, and specific language to explain a very complex topic.
