Computers and the Internet is taking over our lives and everything we do. There computer and tech topics all over the internet that you need to know or soon you will be lost. The following are some computer and internet topics that are trending.
1. Cloud Computing: This is the use of computing resources (hardware and software) that are delivered as a service over a network (typically the Internet). In simple terms, every thing you have been doing on your computer (e.g. word processing, data storage etc.) will now be done on the internet. Instead of installing a suite of software for each computer, you'd only have to load one application. That application would allow you to log into a Web-based service which hosts all the programs that you would need for your job. Remote machines owned by another company would run everything from e-mail to word processing to complex data analysis programs.
2. Apps: This is another computer term that is trending seriously. An App is an abbreviation for application (
which is another name for a computer program). It is a piece of computer software designed to help the user to perform specific tasks. It can run on the Internet, on your computer, or on your phone or other electronic device. These days when people talk about apps 90% of them are actually talking about programs that run on mobile devices especially iPad, iPhone, and android devices.
3.Tweet: This is to post a
writing on Twitter (online
social networking service and micro blogging
service). It is a very
short message posted on the Twitter Web site: the
message may include text, keywords, mentions of specific
users, links to Web sites, and links to
images or videos on a Web site.
