Getting Information Over The Network
GETTING INFORMATION OVER THE NETWORK
Many of the resources listed in this document are stored on the computer
network ("the net"). The following are a few of those locations and how to
get things from them.
FTP, WAIS, archie
You may have access to the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) to copy information
from another computer to your own. For information on FTP, send e-mail to
mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu with "send usenet/news.answers/finding-sources" in
the body.
World Wide Web (WWW)
WWW stands for "World Wide Web". The WWW project, started by CERN (the
European Laboratory for Particle Physics), seeks to build a distributed
hypermedia system.
To access the web, you run a browser program. The browser reads documents,
and can fetch documents from other sources. Information providers set up
hypermedia servers which browsers can get documents from.
The browsers can, in addition, access files by FTP, NNTP (the Internet news
protocol), gopher and an ever-increasing range of other methods. On top of
these, if the server has search capabilities, the browsers will permit
searches of documents and databases.
The document "World Wide Web Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)" is posted to
news.answers, comp.infosystems.www, comp.infosystems.gopher,
comp.infosystems.wais and alt.hypertext on the 1st and 15th of every month
(please allow a day or two for it to propagate to your site). The latest
version is always available on the web as
http://siva.cshl.org/~boutell/www_faq.html. (see "What is a URL?" to
understand what this means.)
The most recently posted version of this document is kept on the
news.answers archive on rtfm.mit.edu in /pub/usenet/news.answers/www/faq
file://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet/news.answers/www/faq. For information on

In new york, Obama condemned the planned Crimean referendum, proverb it "Would violate the Ukrainian constitution and violate global marketplace law. " Crimea's parliament rammed through what amounted to a commitment of independence from Ukraine, asserting it would let the Crimean people, 60 percent of whom are ethnic european, Decide whether they want to enlist with their gigantic neighbor to the east.
