  1. Thank-you Mr Mueller, and your all employees of Google! When I visited your channel I was surprised I didn't see names of employees or guests to bring your audience or visitors to feel more connected to that human being who are teaching ,just a idea, my photography website can't be downloaded ,stop stealing platforms who I feel alot of photographers would pay for a service to show off their pictures sincerely wally

  2. i feel that you had coding examples shown in the video . and not a real life scenario web browser example . so that it would make it more confusing for the non technical people .

  3. If URLs are case sensitive, how come I can type in the name of my website in upper, lower or mixed case and still get to the same site? I've been doing this since the beginning of the Internet, and I've never seen case matter EXCEPT for file/directory paths after the site names.
