I submitted the changes I previously made during

Office Hours last week.

1. I use Steam regularly when I play games. I
would think that there are many webs of
POST and GET requests within that enable online
connections, downloading and saving game data etc.
I think the Steam client probably communicates
with the game servers with the POST and GET
requests to accompolish this.

2. Yeah I would say so! I didn't know about either
type of the requests before so I think I learned
about how things work. Very vaguely I knew that
anything we do on the Internetis basically an
endless transmission of data but I never
considered the technicality of transmissions
that take place.
