Guided Lesson:
Who has the world's largest database?
The National Security Agency has the world's largest database.
The NSA's responsibilities include "global monitoring, collection, decoding, translation and analysis of information and data for foreign intelligence and counterintelligence purposes." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Security_Agency

New word "query"- A database query is a piece of code (a query) that is sent to a database in order to get information back from the database. Queries can be saved.
You can also "filter" information in a database to find information that meets certain conditions, such as all students, who are older than 13 years old.
