Text Links
Text that is hyperlinked to another
web page. Can be found on web sites
or in newsletters and email. Often identified
by appearing in blue with a line under
it. When clicked on, the visitor will
be taken to the page the text was hyperlinked
to.
TLD
Top level domain (TLD) is the domain
name extension that follows a domain
name. For example in the US .com is
used for businesses, .edu for education
institution, .net for networking companies,
.gov for government agencies, .mil for
the military and .org for non profit
organizations. In addition, most countries
have been assigned a two letter TLD
such as .ca for Canada and .uk for United
Kingdom.
Trap Door
A trap door is a type of banner advertisement
that leads to a page that does not easily
allow the visitor to return to the previous
page the banner was on. This is accomplished
by using a meta refresh tag set to 0
on the destination page immediately
sending them to another page or launching
a browser windows that has hidden the
browsers back button.
Tape
Magnetic tape is 1/2 inch wide, and
holds about 300,000 customer records
(depending on its size). Tape records
are sequential (one after the other)
whereas disk records can be in random
order. Tape is the cheapest way to store
information, but the data is hard to
get at. Tape is used for backup and
for sending information from one computer
to another. Direct marketing tapes are
9 track, and 1600 or 6250 bytes per
inch. They are ASCII or EBCDIC.
Terminal
A device that looks like a television
screen with a keyboard which, when hooked
up to a computer, enables you to enter
data into the computer, and receive
data from it which you see on the screen.
The alternative to a terminal is a PC.
