Internet Hierarchy

Here is a photo of the way our group saw the 'map' of the internet:

My group and I descussed what we thought the 'layout' of the internet would look like and using post it notes we layed out it out. We concluded that the internet was like an upside down tree with the main parts runing down the centre (the most important being at the top) and the branching out are the smaller or less used websites.

At the top if our image we out machine code and data as when it comes down to it, this is the foundation of the internet. Then we have Google which is one of if not the most most used search engine online (I see it as your yellow pages and thompson local merged into one) From there we have placed other types of website in order of importance or popularity at this time down the centre branched off by specific websites of its kind i.e General Media -> Music -> ITines -> IPlayer.

Although we structured our idea of the Internet, as another group said, the Internet is always changing as fashionable websites shift. The structure that we made is only how we think it is for the time being and will have to be revised from time to time.
