Intranets V1: I’ve started a new job and people keep suggesting that I look at the intranet to find out more about the company. V2: That’s a good idea. An intranet is a local computer network. It works just the same as the internet – but it’s not open to the public. Only certain people have access to it. For example - it’s open to the employees of a company, to staff and pupils at schools and colleges. Only they have access to it. But all the tools are the same – you can still surf it, just like the internet. V1: I’ve started a new job and people keep suggesting that I look at the intranet to find out more about the company. V2: That’s a good idea. V1: But why? I don’t understand what it’ll show me. V2: The intranet is your company’s internal website and it’ll have lots of useful information on it. V1: Oh, that will be helpful. But what kind of information will I find? V2: Well, you’ll find out about the history of the company, how many staff it has, what it produces, where the factories are based, annual figures… V1: Stop, stop! OK, you’ve convinced me, I’m definitely going to look at the intranet now. Some companies also have extranets. The extranet is an extension of the company’s intranet site out into the internet. The extranet is not accessible to everyone. Only selected users, like customers, suppliers and mobile workers have access to it. Remember, it is different from a company’s website, which anyone can access.
