Here are your questions (tidied up slightly):
1. List two specific types of document that are created or viewed using notepad. 2. Who created the world wide web? 3. Describe how search engines work (use appropriate terminology).
Well, you said you needed to know the *questions*!!
Now, if it's *answers* you're after, you're not going to get spoon fed here, and it wouldn't help you learn anything, either. Go off and do the work yourself.
If you've never opened more than one type of document with notepad, then you're probably on the wrong course. And if you don't know how to do your own research, go ask your tutor for hints.

Why do you need to know the questions if you already asked them? Actually, 1 and 3 are not questions.

Obviously folks from the UK don't get the quip about Al Gore saying that he "took the initiative in creating the internet" somehthing that turned out to be a bit of a joke during Al Gore's run in the 2000 Presidential election.

In and interview with Wolf Blitzer he did say: "I took the initiative in creating the Internet...". and the rest is history, rightly or wrongly, it quickly blew out of proportion and became an ongoing joke in the middle of his political campaign. Of course everybody knows that he didn't invent the internet, I said it as a joke, nothing more.

All our news channels and media carry substantial daily reports on the current election, I wonder if the US media covers overseas elections on such a basis

Was it a joke or black (negative) political propaganda? The joke is when it rebounds on the politician putting out "lies".

Every politician knows that if you say stupid things or word things awkwardly during a political campaign it will come back to bite you! Of course opponents will always try to make political hay out of these gaffs and try to make more out of them than what was really intended to be said in the gaff. Al Gore's comment was a joke on the late night comedy shows but hardly anybody in real politics made too much out of it, certainly the comments didn't lead to Al Gore's defeat.

OK...
I'll help you with your homework...
oops, I just remembered, they did not have computers when I was a kid... except for those large, vacuum tube mainframes
Heck they used punch cards ...
Search engines ???
the big question about engines was this:
are they steam powered or diesel>
No search engines back then,,,
no world wide web... but let me tell you... they had a lot of spider webs back then
they even had them all over the world
maybe that's what you mean by "world wide web" ???
Heck, maybe things weren't so bad back then
I recall that I did have a note pad...
basically just a piece of paper, you could make any kind of document you wanted... even paper airplanes..
With all the help I just gave you... bet you get an A
You betcha <wink>

No it was a corrupt electoral system that lost Gore the Presidency. Bush's brother was the Governor of Florida at the time wasn't he?

When i was a kid...I used to read a lot of science fiction... and pretty much believed all that stuff would some day become possible...
However back in 1964 or 1965 when Isaac Asimov mentioned a *desk top* computer in one of his stories... I stopped reading sci-fi.
I realized right then and there, that sci-fi was nothing but pure fantasy... and I better put my mind back in the real world >G>!

It's a good thing he never described the likes of an iPhone, or a pocket computer with GPS.

now that you've mentioned iPhone... it made me think of some bad sci-fi movie that was made in 1938 or so... and the intercom system in the space ship was a dial phone!!!

Yes and by 1955 or so, some grocery stores had those "electric eye" door openers...they were really cool.
BTW: here is some humor that really does not have anything to do with XP... but this thread is so far OT by now I figured I might as well throw it in

I remember reading in a behind-the-scenes book that after the original series of Star Trek first aired, a hospital contacted the studios asking about the technology behind the Enterprise's doors. They were told that the secret lay in a hidden-away man with a big wheel watching the action. At just the right moment he'd start cranking furiously...!

So the hospital must have hired a lot of men to hide behind doors I suppose <G>

It was in "Foundation and Empire". I remember it well. They looked through a transparent cover on the desktop to see the screen beneath, meanwhile manipulating the 'controls' (keyboard?) out of sight. All the while they were conducting negotiations across the desk with someone who was unaware of what they were doing.
