Warriors of the Net: a 12 minutes long movie to understand computer networking better

By Jeremy Fain, October 26, 2006

Many thanks to Rupert for having sent me the Warriors of the Net link today.

Warriors of the Net is all about the journey of an http request. I like a lot the analogy between computer networking and the world of transportation and logistics and I think there are many things to be written on this topic. For instance, communication physical supports often follow railways/highways/electricity networks – mainly for historical reasons.

Anyways, I strongly recommend you watch this video (and listen to the English version). If you’re an dummy, the way the Internet works will be crystal-clear afterwards, and if you’re already an expert, well, it’s pretty refreshing and shows you a way to share your expertise with many. Opening a blog might be a solution too by the way…

    Well, the basics of TCP/IP never get old, but I guess that animation could use a refershing.
