"Yeah, it's hooked into wireless, so you can use it anywhere. Which isn't dissimilar than this, it's just higher level and has more options." He doesn't know how they do it here. He's seen no radio towers, no where for a network to hook in, no wi-fi options. It just works. Desmond thinks about how best to describe it. He almost says a series of tubes but doesn't, because it only makes sense to people from his world and time.

"So the internet is basically a worldwide system of interconnected computer networks. These networks use a lot of software that connects them to other computers, sometimes using satellites." God is this making sense. He's never had to explain it before. "The information is stored on something called a server, and those servers can talk to each other when you're looking for data which then gives you the information someone else has stored by searching for it. Some servers are huge, like computer companies have giant ones for all of their data and usage, but at home you can just have a computer that can tap into the information everyone else has." He's really not sure how helpful any of that is. He really misses computers.

He does laugh though. "Yeah, they do. Recipes, looking at cute animals, screaming at strangers, and looking at porn. That's what the internet's all about."
