the World Wide Web

The World Wide Web (WWW) is an extensive system of interlinked documents and resources accessed via the internet. It allows users to browse websites and find information using web browsers. Created in the early 1990s, the web uses hyperlinks to connect different pages and enables the sharing of text, images, videos, and more. Unlike the internet, which is the underlying network of computers, the web is specifically about accessing and sharing content. It has transformed how we communicate, learn, and conduct business globally, connecting people and information in unprecedented ways.
