Many people make the mistake that the internet and the web
or the World Wide Web are the same thing. In reality they are quite different
and the people that invented them are completely different. The Internet is a network
of networks or in simpler terms, an infrastructure. It’s what makes you capable
of accessing the web. The Web (www) is a group of information that is placed on
the internet for access. It is a service on top of that infrastructure. So you
need the internet to get onto the web. A good example that the website used was
that the internet is a big book store while the web is a collection of the books
inside of the store.
There are several
people that you could say invented the internet as well as the web because of
all the logistical jobs that were involved. There were two main
people for each that are well known for the creating of the Internet and the Web.
Two men named Robert E. Khan and Vint Cerf are the ones who created the
internet. The people who created the web are Timer Berners-Lee and Robert
Cailliau. It is because of these people along with the help of others that we
are able to receive all the information we want in a click of a button.
