What is Upload and Download?

Uploading - This is the opposite of downloading. With uploading, you take a file from your computer and send it to a computer on the internet (or a server). Usually this is done with an FTP client, but some web sites you'll come across will allow you to send files to them with your web browser.

Downloading - This is moving a file that's on the Internet onto your computer. For most of us, downloading is just a matter of clicking a download link on a web site and saving the file to disk.
