Research Assignment

In this research assignment I am going to be answering questions about the world wide web, and its evolution and expansion over the past few years.  Do more people access the web using computers or mobile devices? according to the author of research,com’s mobile vs. desktop article, “in 2019, 58% of the total web traffic came from mobile users”. who controls the world wide web? What is it made out of? according to multiple different sources, like, “Who controls the internet”(gardians.com) as well as, “who controls the world wide web”(thehindu.com), the organization that seems to have the bulk of the control of the web is ICANN, “the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers”. According to many sources most obviously from the author at Britannica, the world wide web is made of three major ingredients, URL, HTTP, and HTML. All of these things, along with many more are the reason we have the web as we know it today. Who is Tim Berners-Lee and what is he most known for? Tim Berners-Lee is the inventor of the internet. He created the world wide web in 1989. What is a Blog? What is it used for? A blog to me  and to some people, is basically a less personal, public diary entry with information coming at you left and right. What is a “responsive” website design? according to Nielson Norman Group’s article regarding this web design, “Responsive web design (RWD) is a web development approach that creates dynamic changes to the appearance of a website, depending on the screen size and orientation of the device being used to view it”. Why are “responsive” website designs necessary. they are necessary because they overall make the website experience easier for the user. What is SEO, and why should website owners/managers be concerned with SEO? SEO stands for “Search Engine Optimization”. Having a good SEO means that your website is visible and easy to access and fond online. What is dynamic content? There is a great definition from omniconvert.com, describing dynamic content, “Dynamic content (aka adaptive content) refers to web content that changes based on the behavior, preferences, and interests of the user. It refers to websites as well as e-mail content and is generated at the moment a user requests a page. Dynamic content is personalized and adapts based on the data you have about the user and on the access time, its goal being to deliver an engaging and satisfying online experience for the visitor”. What is a content management system? I work with one, what is it’s name? “A content management system (CMS) is a software application that enables users to create, edit, collaborate on, publish and store digital content. CMSes are typically used for enterprise content management (ECM) and web content management (WCM).” I am actually not sure what content management system I work with. What is a YouTube channel? Who might want to start one? A YouTube channel is using the YouTube website to past videos about various different things so that millions of people can watch and enjoy. The usual age of a person that starts a YouTube channel would probably be a older teenager. A lot of teenagers feewl the need to be likes and sought after. YouTube is just a fun way to do that.
