A
little effort to provide you a knowledge by NextTrak. |

For
your convenience, NextTrak has compiled this Glossary
of Terms. This glossary of terms is not Internet specific, rather it is
technology specific. You may work with some of the terms included here
on a regular basis, or you may have heard some of them being used over
the past few years, but didn't have a real grasp on their exact meaning.
Whatever your computer needs are, we think you will find something useful
in this list. |

This
list is not complete, by any means. If you have any terms that you would
like to see added to this glossary, e-mail your request to info@nexttrak.com |

|
|
| Access
Time |
| The time
it takes a computer to retrieve stored data. Technically speaking,
access time is the time interval between the instant a computer calls
for data from a storage medium (such as a hard disk, CD-ROM, or the
Internet) and the instant the data is delivered. This can be a matter
of seconds or minutes on the Web, depending on the speed of your connection.
If you leave your computer and your browser stays idle for too long,
your ISP may automatically "cut your time off" and you'll
have to dial-up to get access again. |

| Ad
Banner |
| An advertisement
on a Web page that links to an advertiser's Web site or buffer page.
Ad banners are the most common unit of advertising on the Web and
cost anywhere from free to upwards of $150 - $1,500 per month depending
on the amount of page views the Web site (and thus the ad banner)
receives. It's called an ad "banner" because the original
online advertisements were always in the shape of a banner, usually
at the top of a page but may be at bottom, at any side or even in
the middle of page if space vacant. Nowadays, there are many sizes
of online ad "banners". The standard size for an ad banner
which NextTrak prefers on www.nexttrak.com
is 120 pixels wide by 120 pixels high for at sides and 468 pixels
wide by 60 pixels high for the top or bottom. |
