Many people think Internet and Web are the same thing, but they are different:
| Internet | World Wide Web (WWW) |
|---|---|
| It is the big network that connects all computers in the world | It is websites and web pages that we see on browsers |
| Started in 1960s | Started in 1989 by Tim Berners-Lee |
| Uses TCP/IP to work | Uses HTTP to work |
| Has email, games, file sharing | Has websites, web pages, blogs |
| It is like the road system | It is like the cars that use the roads |
Simple explanation: Internet is like electricity, and Web is like your TV that uses electricity.
