Cyber Glossary
Cyberlaw dictionary is an alphabetical reference guide to technical and legal terms related to the Internet. The site you are now browsing contains over 500 definitions of words drawn from Standard Internet English including technical terms and their meanings. Our aim is to explain basic technical jargon of cyberspace to those who are not familiar with its jargon. We've given preference to terms that are widely used, like modem or bandwidth, and to those that describe new concepts specific to the Internet experience such as phishing or sexting.
Clipboard

In Windows the images or text vanish when the computer is turned off. Macintosh has both a Clipboard that operates in the same way, and a Scrapbook that holds more than one image at a time, and saves held material from one work session to another.
