At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks didnt work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If a part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part.

The word “blog” is a short way of saying Weblog, or personal Website. Anyone can start a blog, and they can write about anything they like.There are millions of blogs on the Internet today. They provide news, information and ideas and many people read them. A research company called Perseus has studied more than 300 Weblogs. It says that blogs are most popular with teenage girls. They use them to let their friends know what is happening in their lives. The study also says that more than 100,000 bloggers stopped taking part in the activity after a year. However, some people develop serious blogs to present political and other ideas. And American companies are beginning to use blogs to advertise their products.One blog that is still going strong is called Rebeccas Pocket. Rebecca Blood created the Website in 1999. She wrote about the history of blogs on the site. That article led to a book called “The Weblog Handbook”. It has been translated into four languages so far.Ms. Blood says Rebeccas Pocket gets about 30,000 visitors a month. She writes about anything and everything politics, culture and movies. She recently provided medical advice. And she wrote about how to prevent people from stealing money from online bank accounts.5.
