[Infographics] How the Internet Works

I had a longer entry in mind for today about some of the games that I've been playing or even the various Transformers that I have around the house, but work has been getting in the way of things.

So instead, I'm leaving you with a rather informative (and animated) infographic from the folks at Open-Site.org regarding the nature of the internet. And while we all use the web for various things pretty much every day, most of us don't exactly understand the principles behind it and why it works the way it does.

So this should come in handy so you don't go making some gaffe about the internet being a "series of tubes" or something. Enjoy.
