The World Wide Web

1. The WWW or Web is a project whose goal is to offer a simple, consistent interface to the vast resources of the Internet. When you use the Web, you follow your nose: i.e., you start anywhere you want, and you jump from one place to another pursuing whatever strikes your fancy. With only a few simple commands, you can jump way around the Internet like a hyperactive flea at a dog convention .

2. To understand the Web we need to start with the idea of hypertext. Hypertext is data that contain links to other data. A simple example of hypertext is an encyclopaedia, the entry on “Trees”. At the end of the article you see a reference saying, ‘For related information see Plants’. This last link is a link from the “Trees” article to the “Plants” article.

3. The Web is based on hypertext that is a lot more complex. There may be links anywhere within a document, not just at the end. A hypertext document, in the language of the Web, is something that contains data and links to other documents. The program that you use to read a hypertext document is called a browser. As you follow one link to another, it means that you are navigating the Web .

4. The word hypermedia is referring to documents that contain a variety of data types and not just plain text. So, the Web does contain some hypermedia , but most of what you see will be plain vanilla hypertext : textual material that you can display on your screen.

5. The job of your browser is to act as a window into the Internet by following links you desire , and by accessing each document using an appropriate method.

6. So, the Web does allow you to access all kinds of Internet resources, just by using a browser to “read” the appropriate document. The Web also uses a client / server system.
