Different types and sizes of computers find users throughout our society. They are used for the storage and handling of data, secret governmental files, information about banking transactions and so on.

Computers have opened up a new era in manufacturing and they have enhanced modern communication systems. They are essential tools in almost every field of research, from constructing models of the universe to producing tomorrow’s weather reports. Using of different databases and computer networks make available a great variety of information sources.

There are two main types of computers, analog and digital, although the term computer is often used to mean only the digital type, because this type of computer is widely used today.

Everything that a digital computer does is based on one operation: the ability to determine: on or off, high voltage or low voltage or – in the case of numbers – 0 or 1. The speed at which the computer performs this simple act is called computer speed.

Digital computer speed and calculating power are further enhanced by the amount of data handled during each cycle. Except two main types of computers, analog and digital there are eight generations of digital computers or processing units. Nowadays computers have become an important part of everyone’s life. Today a lot is demanded so everyone is busy to have time to find a relationship. So computers have also filled this part.

Social networks and computers have played a big role in connecting both old and new relationships.
