The difference between The Internet and WWW

Many People wonder if and what the difference

Is between the internet and WWW

(world wide web) 

 

People commonly use the internet meaning web and vice versa. However this is a actually wrong, as the internet is the container of the information and the web is only how you access that information.

The internet; Is a massive network that connects everything together it is the infrastructure for the web.

The WWW; Is the space where all the information and document are stored, they are identified by URIs, interlinked by hypertext links to get to the correct page.

The massive difference is that with out the internet you would not have the web as the internet lets everyone (that is connected to WIFI) to access the information from the web.
