The World Wide Web (abbreviated as WWW or W3,commonly known
as the Web) is a system of interlinked hypertext documents that are accessed
via the Internet. With a web browser, one can view web pages that may contain
text, images, videos, and other multimedia and navigate between them via
hyperlinks.
Tim Berners-Lee, a British computer scientist and former CERN
employee,is considered the inventor of the Web. On March 12, 1989,[3] Berners-Lee
wrote a proposal for what would eventually become the World Wide Web.[4] The
1989 proposal was meant for a more effective CERN communication system but
Berners-Lee eventually realised the concept could be implemented throughout the
world.Berners-Lee and Belgian computer scientist Robert Cailliau proposed in
1990 to use hypertext "to link and access information of various kinds as
a web of nodes in which the user can browse at will",[6] and Berners-Lee
finished the first website in December of that year. The first test was
completed around 20 December 1990 and Berners-Lee reported about the project on
the newsgroup alt.hypertext on 7 August 1991.
