题目内容
Life online can be a much richer experience when you aren't restricted to just written words and still pictures. Even if you're new to the Net, you've probably heard about multimedia online--listening to audio, watching animations and videos, even playing in three-dimensional space. Sound and movement make information come alive.
To experience it, you'll need special pieces of software called plugins. The term “plugin” refers to a small, addon piece of software which extends the capabilities of your web browser, like Netscape Navigator or Microsoft Explorer, turning your computer into a radio or TV.
When you arrive at a web page which contains a file requiring a plugin which you don't have, you will usually receive a message asking, “If you want to get it by downloading it and installing it into your computer.” Most of the time, the installation will be automatic.
Occasionally, you'll run into a downloaded file which needs to be decompressed or unzipped before installation. Once installed, plugins run automatically, without you having to do anything.
Many multimedia controls still need to be obtained from the developer but are installed automatically.
Shock wave is a good example of this. All you need to do is go to the Macromedia site and click on the link to install the Active X control. The rest happens automatically. The next time you go to a “shocked” website, the shock wave control loads and plays the movie.
Most plugins and controls can be downloaded for free on the Internet, although not all will work with every system. Some of them, for instance, only work with Windows 95.
