- Internet
- The vast collection of interconnected networks that all use the TCP/IP protocols. An "internet" (lower case i) is any computers connected to each other (a network), and are not part of the Internet unless they use TCP/IP protocols.
- Intranet
- A private network inside a company or organization that uses the same kinds of software that you would find on the public Internet, but that is only for internal use. An intranet may be on the Internet or may simply be a network.
- ISP - Internet Service Provider
- A company that sells Internet connections via modem. Faster, more expensive Internet connectivity is available via cable, DSL, ISDN, or web-TV. Often these companies also provide Web page hosting service.
- Italic font
- In typography, italic type refers to cursive typefaces based on a stylized form of calligraphic handwriting. The influence from calligraphy can be seen in their usual slight slanting to the right.
