I know www stands for the World Wide Web. However, I've heard of URLs that begin with www1, www2 etc instead of the usual www. Why is it so? Is it just a testing ground or does it have other uses? And how are these wwws created?

The WWW prefix (short for World Wide Web) that precedes URL addresses is an indication that the Web address exists on the vast network of the World Wide Web. Sometimes in a URL the “WWW” is followed by a number, such as “WWW1” or “WWW2.” The number that follows the “WWW” indicates that the data being retrieved by the Web browser is gathering the information from a different Web server than the one that serves the typical “WWW” address

www was the original Internet server. You went there first and then were redirected to any other servers to find your webpage. www1, www2, etc were added by other people as the Internet grew. But it became to difficult to have to know which server to got to first to find your page. So DNS (Domain Name Service) was invented. DNS stored the list of web sites on your ISPs router, rather that on a www server. This meant there were now thousands of routers able to take you to your web page, and www (1,2,3,etc) were no longer needed. That is why you can get to a web page without including the www now.

A flirt is somebody who will communicate nasty to you, supply you sexual seems and supply the occasional long hug. a tease is somebody who shows dermis, extra of a glance yet do not touch style of deal. Get you in a room initiate messing around, then make some excuse of why they'd't pass any extra beneficial. I want the flirt over the tease!!
