Internet If you wish to expose information to everyone in the world, then
you would build an Internet-type application. An Internet-type application
uses Internet protocols such as HTTP, FTP, or SMTP and is available to
persons anywhere on the Internet. We use the Internet and web applications
as ways to extend who the application can reach. For example, I no longer
need to go to the bank to transfer funds. Because the bank has built a web site
on the Internet, I can do that from the comfort of my own home.
