Technology Words!
I used Google and Ask to search for technology vocabulary words.
1-Byte- A byte is a group of 8 bits, strung together.
2-Cursor- A blinking line or shape on the screen that tells you where the next character will go.
3-Listserv- A very common program used to run a mailing list. Because it is so common, mailing lists are often called listservs, even if they are run with different software.
4-PING- Packet Internet Gopher. A TCP/IP application that sends a message to another computer, waits for a reply, and displays the time the transmission took. This serves to identify what computers are available on the Internet and how long wait-times are.
5-Sysop -Systems operator. A person responsible for the operations of a computer system or network. Part of such operations are security checks and routine maintenance.
6-Unix - A multi-user operating system that was used to create most of the programs and protocols that built the Internet.
7-Binary- Binary means "two," or "base two." The binary system is a way of counting using just the two numbers 0 and 1.
8-Alias- A file that points to another item, such as a program, document, folder, or disk. When an alias is opened, the original item that the alias points to is opened. This helps in the organizing and accessing of files. Alias is purely a Mac term. The equivalent term for Windows-based computers is a shortcut.
9-Linux- An operating system that is a UNIX clone. It was created by programmer Linus Torvalds, who gave Linux its name. Linux is under special copyright that allows anyone to improve it, but no one to profit from it.
10-Solutions Integrator- A type of consulting business that helps other businesses integrate new technology into their existing structure. The technology being integrated includes: supply-chain management systems, sales-force automation systems, e-commerce, Internet development telecommunications, computer telephony, etc.
11-Bandwidth- The amount of information that one can send through a connection, measures in bits-per-second (Bps). A standard page of English text contains about 16,000 bits.
