The top 3 "big darn deals" on Chapter 2

After reading chapter 2, I realized that there are more web browsers out there than Internet Explorer. I have heard of and used Firefox and Netscape but for some reason I was really set on Internet Explorer being the main Web browser. I find that weird since there are other options! The second thing I learned in Chapter 2 is that IP addresses and the domain name both correlate. I didn't even know that they had anything in common. But now I know that the IP address is basically the number format and the domain name is the word format for the name of the website.  The third thing I learned in Chapter 2 is about Netiquette. Last semester when I took my first computer class I heard my teacher refer to Internet Etiquette as Netiquette and I thought she was creative for just making it up right there on the spot. Now after reading chapter 2 it’s like "Netiquette" is a world wide thing! But it is pretty good to have the netiquette guide because most of the guidelines on it make sense and have a point.
