ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Push technology

Push technology is a way of sending information to you over the internet. It works like a newspaper delivery person. They get the newspaper each day and bring it to you. But instead of sending a physical newspaper, push technology sends you digital information like news, email messages, or updates from websites that you have chosen to receive. It's like getting the information brought straight to your computer instead of having to go out and look for it.
