hen we opens an Internet site we see www. world wide web is the full form of www?

The World Wide Web is commonly known as web. It was launched in 1989 at the European Particle Physics Laboratory in Geneva. It is the latest addition on the Internet to exchange information. It is a network of web servers that stores web pages.

The World Wide Web (WWW), also called the Web, is an information space where documents and other web resources are identified by Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), interlinked by hypertext links, and accessible via the Internet. English scientist Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web in 1989.

The first web page went live on August 6, 1991. It was dedicated to information on the World Wide Web project and was made by Tim Berners-Lee. It ran on a NeXT computer at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, CERN. The first web page address was http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html.

The World Wide Web is based on several different technologies that make it possible for users to locate and share information through the Internet. These include Web browsers, Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).
