The Internet is the common name for a large internet (lower-case i) comprising of most of the more frequently used computers on Earth and in its orbits. The network is used for the free transfer of information between countries, especially e-mail and the World Wide Web. It uses a system called packet-switching and a common protocol called IP (Internet Protocol).

Additionally, the Ultimate Comment itself has an domain and a website, which you are now reading.
