Just as a telephone enables you to talk to someone on the other side of the earth who also has a phone, the Internet enables a person to sit at his computer and exchange information with other computers and computer users anyplace in the world.
Nii nagu sa tänu telefonile saad rääkida teise telefonikasutajaga teispool maakera, saab inimene tänu Internetile oma arvuti taga istudes vahetada teavet teiste arvutite ja arvutikasutajatega igast maailma paigast.
