A node is defined as a piece of content that is being published on a Drupal framework or site. It can be in a form of stories, page, video, images, polls, forum, blog, book etc. In any single content, node ties several info together such as title, body that have the actual content, date of creation, the author and comments that can be turned on/off. Stories, page, videos, blog, books, etc are the types of nodes. 2 types of node have already been preinstalled when you first download & run Drupal site; they are page & story.
