What Does Uploading Mean?
Uploading is the process of transferring data from your local system (like your computer or smartphone) to another system or server, typically over the internet.
When you upload a file, you’re sending it from your device to another location. This could be a social media platform (like when you post a photo), a cloud storage service (like when you save a document on Google Drive), or a website server (like when you add an image to a blog post).
Think of it like a monkey throwing a banana (the file) from one tree (your device) to another tree (the server). The banana’s journey through the air is the upload process.
