What is the world wide web? - Twila Camp

Šta je to svetska mreža? - Tvajla Kemp (Twila Camp)

Prevodilac: Mile Živković Lektor: Anja Saric

The World Wide Web,

Svetska mreža,

where you're likely watching this video,

preko koje verovatno gledate ovaj video,

is used by millions of people every day

ima milione korisnika svakog dana,

for everything from

za sve radnje,

checking the weather,

od proveravanja prognoze,

ordering food,

poručivanja hrane

and chatting with friends

i ćaskanja sa prijateljima,

to raising funds,

do skupljanja sredstava,

sharing news,

deljenja novosti

or starting revolutions.

ili pokretanja revolucija.

We use it from our computers, our phones, even our cars.

Koristimo je sa naših kompjutera, telefona, čak i iz automobila.

It's just there,

Prosto je tu,

all around us, all the time.

svuda oko nas, stalno.

But what is it exactly?

Ali šta je ona tačno?

Well first of all, the World Wide Web is not the Internet,

Pre svega, Svetska mreža nije samo Internet,

even though the terms are often used interchangeably.

iako se ta dva termina često koriste naizmenično.

The Internet is simply the way computers connect to each other

Internet je jednostavno način na koji se kompjuteri međusobno povezuju

in order to share information.

kako bi širili informacije.

When the Internet first emerged,

Kada se Internet prvi put pojavio,

computers actually made direct calls to each other.

kompjuteri su zapravo direktno zvali jedni druge.

Today, networks are all around us,

Mreže su danas svuda oko nas

so computers can communicate seamlessly.

tako da kompjuteri mogu neprimetno da komuniciraju.

The communication enabled through the Internet

Komunikacija koju omogućava internet

has many uses,

ima mnogo upotreba,

such as email, file transfer, and conferencing.

poput imejla, transfera podataka i grupnog razgovora.

But the most common use

Ali najčešća upotreba

is accessing the World Wide Web.

je pristupanje Svetskoj mreži.

Think of the Web as a bunch of skyscrapers,

Pomislite na Mrežu kao gomilu oblakodera,

each representing a web server,

gde svaki predstavlja veb server,

a computer always connected to the Internet,

kompjuter koji je uvek povezan na internet,

specifically designed to store information and share it.

posebno napravljen za skladištenje i deljenje podataka.

When someone starts a website,

Kada neko osnuje veb sajt,

they are renting a room in this skyscraper,

ta osoba iznajmljuje sobu u ovom oblakoderu,

filling it with information

puni je informacijama

and linking that information together

i te informacije povezuje

in an organized way for others to access.

na organizovan način, za pristup drugima.

The people who own these skyscrapers

Ljudi koji poseduju ove oblakodere

and rent space in them

i iznajmljuju prostor u njima

are called web hosts,

nazivaju se veb domaćinima,

but anyone can set up a web server

ali svako može da pokrene veb server

with the right equipment a bit of know-how.

uz pravu opremu i malo znanja.

Postoji još jedna strana posedovanja veb sajta,

There's another part to having a website,

without which we would be lost in the city

bez koje bismo bili izgubljeni u gradu

with no way of finding what we need.

i ne bismo mogli da nađemo ono što nam treba.

This is the website address,

To je adresa vebsajta,

which consists of domain names.

koja se sastoji od imena domena.

Just like with a real life address,

Baš kao i adresa u stvarnom životu,

a website address lets you get where you want to go.

adresa veb sajta vam omogućava da idete tamo gde želite.

The information stored in the websites

Informacije koje se skladište na veb sajtovima

is in web languages,

su na veb jezicima,

such as HTML and JavaScript.

poput HTML-a i JavaScript-a.

When we find the website we're looking for,

Kada nađemo sajt koji smo tražili,

our web browser is able to take all the code on the site

naš veb pretraživač može da preuzme sav kod sa sajta

and turn it into words, graphics, and videos.

i pretvori ga u reči, slike i video snimke.

We don't need to know any special computer languages

Ne moramo da znamo nikakve posebne kompjuterske jezike

because the web browser creates a graphic interface for us.

jer veb pretraživač za nas stvara grafički interfejs.

So, in a lot of ways,

Na mnogo načina,

the World Wide Web is a big virtual city

Svetska mreža je zapravo veliki virtuelni grad

where we communicate with each other

gde međusobno komuniciramo

in web languages,

u veb jezicima,

with browsers acting as our translators.

a veb pretraživači nam služe kao prevodioci.

And just like no one owns a city,

Isto kao što niko ne poseduje grad,

no one owns the Web;

tako niko ne poseduje mrežu -

it belongs to all of us.

ona pripada svima nama.

Anyone can move in and set up shop.

Svako može da se useli i pokrene posao.

We might have to pay an Internet service provider

Možda moramo da platimo Internet provajderu

to gain access,

da bismo dobili pristup,

a hosting company to rent web space,

kompaniji za hosting za iznajmljivanje prostora

or a registrar to reserve our web address.

ili registru kako bismo rezervisali svoju veb adresu.

Like utility companies in a city,

Poput komunalnih preduzeća u gradu,

these companies provide crucial services,

ove kompanije pružaju ključne usluge,

but in the end,

ali na kraju,

not even they own the Web.

čak ni one ne poseduju Mrežu.

But what really makes the Web so special

Ali ono što Mrežu čini tako posebnom

lies in its very name.

leži u samom njenom imenu.

Prior to the Web,

Pre Mreže,

we used to consume most information

većinu informacija smo konzumirali

in a linear fashion.

na linearan način.

In a book or newspaper article,

U knjizi ili novinskom članku,

each sentence was read from beginning to end,

svaka rečenica se čita od početka do kraja,

page by page,

stranica za stranicom,

in a straight line until you reached the end.

u pravoj liniji, dok ne dođete do kraja.

But that isn't how our brains actually work.

Ali naši mozgovi zapravo ne funkcionišu tako.

Each of our thoughts is linked to other thoughts,

Svaka od naših misli povezana je s drugim mislima,

memories, and emotions

sećanjima i emocijama

in a loose interconnected network, like a web.

u labavo povezanoj mreži.

Tim Berners-Lee, the father of the World Wide Web,

Tim Berners-Li, otac Svetske mreže,

understood that we needed a way to organize information

razumeo je da nam je bio potreban način da organizujemo informacije

that mirrored this natural arrangement.

koji je bio sličan ovom prirodnom poretku.

And the Web accomplishes this through hyperlinks.

Mreža ovo postiže kroz hiperlinkove.

By linking several pages within a website

Povezivanjem nekoliko strana unutar sajta

or even redirecting you to other websites

ili čak preusmerivanjem na druge sajtove

to expand on information or ideas immediately

kako bi se direktno nadogradile informacije ili ideje

as you encounter them,

kako ih srećete,

hyperlinks allow the Web

hiperlinkovi omogućavaju Mreži

to operate along the same lines as our thought patterns.

da funkcioniše istim putem kao i naši šabloni misli.

The Web is so much a part of our lives

Mreža je toliki deo naših života

because in content and structure,

zato što po sadržaju i strukturi

it reflects both the wider society

oslikava i šire društvo

and our individual minds.

i naše pojedinačne umove.

And it connects those minds

I te umove povezuje

across all boundaries,

preko svih granica,

not only enthnicity, gender, and age

ne samo rase, pola i godina,

but even time and space.

već čak i vremena i prostora.
