2. Shared Hosting

the advantages of free hosting is that firstly its a free hosting environment and a advantage of Shared hosting is that they are affordable because the cost is split between the people sharing it

the disadvantages of a Free Hosting is that the connection speed can be slow, the website could crash a lot and there is a lot of advertising that could pop up on your website. and sometimes they are not 100% free they may ask you to pay for the domain name. some disadvantages of shared is that the internet can be slow.

They link web servers with the rest of the internet and determine what type of connection they have. For example, if an ISP provides a max of 1 Mb broadband, that's the fastest connection any user on that ISP can have. 

A few of the main ISP's which are providing now across the UK are, Sky, British Telecommunications (BT), Virgin Media, TalkTalk etc.

On the other hand World Wide Web is just a web site build on top of the internet. Similarly world wide web is just part of the internet where users can share information across the network.
Time line of internet:

The internet is simply created to send data and information across computers and make task more easier.
the world wide web is created during 1980
Web 1.0 is the first stage of world wide web where websites are linked with hyperlinks.

A computer dedicated to running such applications is also called a mail server.

POP stands for Post Office Protocol. It is an application-layer Internet standard protocol used by local email clients to retrieve email from a remote server over a TCP/IP connection.

Proxy servers help improve web performance by storing a copy of frequently used webpages. When a browser requests a webpage stored in the proxy server's collection (its cache), it is provided by the proxy server, which is faster than going to the web. Proxy servers also help improve security by filtering out some web content and malicious software.

An example of a email client is Mozilla Thunderbird. Like most client programs, an email client is only active when a user runs it. The most common arrangement is for an email user (the client) to make an arrangement with a remote MTA server for the receipt and storage of the client's emails. The MTA, using a suitable MDA , adds email messages to a client's storage as they arrive. Email clients usually contain user interfaces to display and edit text. Some applications permit the use of a program-external editor.When a user wishes to create and send an email, the email client will handle the task. The email client is usually set up automatically to connect to the user's mail server, which is typically either an MSA or an MTA, two variations of the SMTP protocol.  The email client which uses the SMTP protocol creates an authentication extension, which the mail server uses to authenticate the sender.

The cloud is the internet. A service is provided to store files and programs on the internet itself, the files are stored on allocated servers. A connection to the remote server is required.

Cloud computing allows for flexibility, ideal for expanding businesses cloud computing allows for scaling. If the size of the business increases or decreases further capacity can be drawn from a remote server.

Cloud computing is a remote service which allows user to manipulate and process data over the internet, this is more advance due to the convenience of accessing information rather than getting to the PC or the device to transfer information to other devices or for urgent use. Cloud computing is simple and allow access globally, but requires internet connection. there are many examples for instant ICloud and google drive. there are many drawback for for this facility, for example lack of security. Although cloud computing is more convenient and easy to access, but it only works when there is internet connection otherwise it will not work. Also on cloud computing the security service may not be promised, data can be corrupted or stolen if data are not encrypted and the account haven't got a save password. ]]> 2016-03-21 09:23:56 UTC https://padlet.com/tomwonguk/t68zwrmsefzd/wish/101966506 https://padlet.com/tomwonguk/t68zwrmsefzd/wish/101966988 Three main areas of focus of web 2.0 -
