The site you are now browsing contains over 500 definitions of words drawn from Standard Internet English including technical terms and their meanings. Our aim is to explain basic technical jargon of cyberspace to those who are not familiar with its jargon. We've given preference to terms that are widely used, like modem or bandwidth, and to those that describe new concepts specific to the Internet experience such as phishing or sexting.
Technical support
assistance provided by the manufacturer of both hardware and software. It is also a service provided by ISPs, online service providers, and Web hosting companies. Technical support may be offered by telephone, via an online chat program, by email, or by snail mail. Support personnel answer questions of all varieties such as, .How do I set up this equipment?. to .Where is the on switch for my new computer?. The popularity and success of many companies offering computer-related products and services is often directly re-lated to the quality of technical support they offer.
