Traveling down the rural Valley Pike in the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia in the United States, a driver will buzz past a small berg called Toms Brook. Toms Brook is a town with about 300 people. Toms Brook is also home to The Virginian Truck Stop.
We do not mention Toms Brook or The Virginian Truck stop as a travel plug for that community. Rather, we are using this rural, somewhat isolated berg as an example of a development that has occurred along roadways, highways and byways around the world in the 21st century.
The Virginia Truck Stop is what can best be pegged as an Internet truckstop. Travelers along the Valley Pike can take a break in their journeys and stop into the Internet truckstop in Toms Brook.
The Internet truckstop at The Virginian are able to access the World Wide Web from portals at tables in the diner attached to The Virginian. In other words, a person traveling across the country can take a rest to have a nice, down home meal and answer his or her email at the same time.
The Internet truckstop can be found not only on major traffic-ways but also on more out of the way roadways in some of the most obscure places imaginable. In other words, even when traveling, it is becoming easier to stay in touch via the World Wide Web.
These types of setups have begun cropping up everywhere. Again, we used the example of a small Internet truckstop in Virginia to emphasize how wide spread the Internet truckstop has become in this day and age.
The charges associated with using the services offered at an Internet truckstop are minimal. Indeed, the proprietors of most Internet truckstops seem to make it a point to keep the costs associated with accessing the World Wide Web from their establishments low and reasonable.
