The server that stores a newsgroup is called news server, the store and forward process is called obtaining a newsfeed, most of this newsfeed occur over the internet using the Network News Transfer Protocol (NNTP).The Newsreaders were programs designed for the sole purpose of communicating with news server computers.

The Primary differences among chat tools relate to the conversation that you have using them and the software and internet connection required to initiate them.

Chapter #6 focus on how the FTP works, how can we transfer files or download as well as upload with FTP, how to navigate a FTP site by a web browser. Also explain all of compressed files. FTP, or File Transfer Protocol, is the Internet protocol that transfers files between computers that are connected to the Internet. The site to which you are sending files and from which you are receiving files is called an FTP site, FTP server, or a remote computer. When you are connected to the FTP file it is call the Local Computer. You can select one of two file transfer modes-ASCII or binary-that you want to use before transferring the file. Most Web browsers, including Microsoft Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator, support FTP, but have limited functionality when compared to FTP client programs. Logging on to one of the many publicly accessible, remote computers connected to the Internet is called Anonymous Login and you use a anonymous user name. Software that is available to users at no cost and with no restrictions are called freeware. On the other hands it is usually available for free during a short evaluation period are called Shareware. File compression programs compress files to decrease the amount of space they require and also to decrease the time it takes to upload and download files. WinZip is a popular file compression program; the most common extension is .zip, which is why some people refer to compressed files as zip files or a zip archive.Blog Entry #5
