TRIVIA/GLOSSARY OF TERMS
1. Aggregator is a website or Web application where headlines and other content are
collected for easy viewing. Aggregators such as Google News compile news articles and
posts.
2. An avatar is a two- or three-dimensional icon that represents a computer user or a gamer.
Avatar can be a cartoonish graphic, a photograph, a screen name, or a fully developed
character.
3. Blog, from the term “weblog,” is a type of website usually updated by an individual or a
group of bloggers. Some blogs provide news or opinions on a specific subject, while others
are more like online journals. Most blogs allow readers to leave comments on blog posts.
4. Flaming is the act of saying mean things online, usually in ALL CAPS, and often in a
public forum with the intention to humiliate. Flame wars can occur easily online, as it can be
difficult to figure out people’s intentions or emotions online.
5. Mash-up is a remix or blend of multiple songs, videos, or other media content into one
product. Fan fiction writing is one form of a mash-up, as writers take characters from a well-
known video game, movie, or book, and rewrite their actions or relationships.
6. Massively multiplayer online game (MMOG) is usually an online virtual world that
multiple players navigate and play in together. While in this virtual world, their avatars chat,
cooperate, and quest together, oftentimes towards a goal.
7. P2P, or Peer-to-Peer, network allows for sharing of mp3s, videos, and other digital files by
transferring information directly between two computers rather than by going through a
central server. P2P technology is also behind the popular Internet phone service Skype.
8. Phishing is the illegal act of sending emails or messages that appear to come from
authentic sources, but really come from spammers. Phishers often try to get people to send
them their personal information, everything from account numbers to passwords.
9. Podcast is a downloadable video or audio file. Podcasts can be verbal, based on a certain
topic, or can include music, video, and commentary. Most podcasts are updated regularly
through the addition of new episodes.
10. Short Message Service (SMS), or text message, is a short message of fewer than 160
characters sent from a cell phone. A Multimedia Messaging Service (MMS) is a text message
that contains an attached multimedia file, such as a picture or song.
11. Mail merging means to plug data from an address table into form letters, e-mail messages,
envelopes, address labels, or a directory (Example: a parent list or product catalog, for
example).
12. Hyperlinks - “Hyperlinks are objects inside an electronic document that include the
location of another object. Hyperlinks use the hypertext transfer protocol, the same protocol
that drives connections on the World Wide Web, to electronically point users to documents
and files stored in another location. When a user clicks on a hyperlink, the computer uses the
information in the link to locate and load the external resource.”
