    William G. Morgan (1870-1942), who was born in the State of New York, has gone down in history as the inventor of the game of volleyball, to which he originally gave the name "Mintonette".
    The young Morgan carried out his undergraduate studies at the Springfield College of the YMCA (Young Men's Christian Association) where he met James Naismith who, in 1891, had invented basketball. After graduating, Morgan spent his first year at the Auburn (Maine) YMCA after which, during the summer of 1896, he moved to the YMCA at Holyoke (Massachusetts) where he became Director of Physical Education. In this role he had the opportunity to establish, develop, and direct a vast programme of exercises and sports classes for male adults.
    His leadership was enthusiastically accepted, and his classes grew in numbers. He came to realise that he needed a certain type of competitive recreational game in order to vary his programme. Basketball, which sport was beginning to develop, seemed to suit young people, but it was necessary to find a less violent and less intense alternative for the older members.

    In 1995, the sport of Volleyball was 100 years old!
    The sport originated in the United States, and is now just achieving the type of popularity in the U.S. that it has received on a global basis, where it ranks behind only soccer among participation sports.
    Today there are more than 46 million Americans who play volleyball. There are 800 million players worldwide who play Volleyball at least once a week.
    In 1895, William G. Morgan, an instructor at the Young Men's Christian Association (YMCA) in Holyoke, Mass., decided to blend elements of basketball, baseball, tennis, and handball to create a game for his classes of businessmen which would demand less physical contact than basketball. He created the game of Volleyball (at that time called mintonette). Morgan borrowed the net from tennis, and raised it 6 feet 6 inches above the floor, just above the average man's head.
    During a demonstration game, someone remarked to Morgan that the players seemed to be volleying the ball back and forth over the net, and perhaps "volleyball" would be a more descriptive name for the sport.
    On July 7, 1896 at Springfield College the first game of "volleyball" was played.

    [in·ter·net || 'intënet] internet (Emri Internet rrjedh nga shkurtesa e fjalëve angleze ( Inter national Net work-Internet ).
    Interneti paraqet rrjet global kompjuterik që bashkon (lidh) rrjete më të vogla kompjuterike, të cilat me ndihmë të protokolit komunikues TCP/IP shkëmbejnë të dhëna dhe informata. Numri i rrjetave të këtilla rritet nga dita në ditë; ato lidhen përmes internetit, më së shpeshti me lidhje kablovike ose satelitore. Interneti mund të përshkruhet si një oktapod me miliona krahë, ku secili krah ka grabitur nga një oktapod më të vogël, që i simbolizon rrjetet e lidhura me internet. Numri më i madh i këtyre oktapodëve të vegjël, mbajnë oktapodë edhe më të vegjël, që simbolizon nivelet e ndryshme të lidhjeve brenda rrjeteve. Interneti mund të definohet edhe si tërësi e kompjuterëve nga e gjithë bota, që dërgojnë, pranojnë dhe regjistrojnë informata, ose thënë shkurtimisht, komunikojnë mes vete. Qasjen në internet anembanë botës e mundësojnë burime të ndryshme: univerzitete, organizata qeveritare, institucione ushtarake, kompani të mëdha dhe firma tjera, që në esencë mundësojnë shfrytëzim të shërbimeve në internet.
    Interneti paraqet thesar të vërtetë të informatave nga fusha të ndryshme (biznes, politikë, shkencë, art, sport, etj.), sasia e të cilit zmadhohet dita-ditës. Interneti vizitohet shpesh, ku shfrytëzuesit gjejnë informatat e nevojshme, edukohen, bisedojnë, diskutojnë, lexojnë botime elektronike të revistave dhe librave, blejnë, e kështu me radhë.
    Interneti mundëson shërbime të ndryshme, mes të cilave më të njohura janë: veb (shkurtesë për World Wide Web, WWW ), posta elektronike (anglisht, e-mail ), IRC ( Internet Relay Chat ), e të tjera.
    Rrjetet kompjuterike janë rrjete të kompjuterëve të lidhur mes vete. Ekzistojnë më shumë lloje rrjetesh. Rrjetet lokale LAN ( Local Area Network ) janë rrjete kablovike kompjuterësh, që gjenden në një laboratori (klasë) ose në laboratori të afërta. Për dallim nga këto, rrjetet WAN ( Wide Area Network ) janë rrjete që ndërlidhin kompjuterë, pa marrë parasysh distancën gjeografike mes tyre. Rrjetet kompjuterike shfrytëzojnë metoda të shumta për ndërlidhje, nga rrjeti standard telefonik, e deri te lidhjet e shpejta e të sofistikuara optike.
