The Internet is the worldwide, publicly accessible network of interconnected computer networks that transmit data by packet switching using the standard Internet Protocol (IP). It is a "network of networks" that consists of millions of smaller domestic, academic, business, and government networks, which together carry various information and services, such as electronic mail, online chat, file transfer, and the interlinked Web pages and other documents of the World Wide Web.

What is the "Internet"? Give some examples of how it is used.
(What kind of services does it provide?)
Answer: The Internet is a network connecting millions of computers around
the world. Computers connected to the Internet can communicate
with each other. The Internet can be used for Email (which lets a
user of one computer send a message to a user on another
computer), file sharing (which is used to copy files between
computers), and the World Wide Web (which lets a user view
"pages" of information published on computers around the world).
