- | The '''World Wide Web ''' (commonly shortened to '''the Web''') is a system of interlinked [[hypertext]] documents accessed via the [[Internet]]. With a [[Web browser]], a user views [[Web page]]s that may contain [[writing|text]], [[image]]s, [[video]]s, and other [[multimedia]] and navigates between them using [[hyperlink]]s. The World Wide Web was created in 1989 by [[UK|British]] scientist [[Sir Tim Berners-Lee]], working at the [[CERN|European Organization for Nuclear Research]] (CERN) in [[Geneva]], [[Switzerland]], and released in 1992. Since then, Berners-Lee has played an active role in guiding the development of Web standards (such as the [[markup language]]s in which Web pages are composed), and in recent years has advocated his vision of a [[Semantic Web]]. | + | # a single page in a [[website]], together with any [[reference]]d [[image]]s or [[script]]s etc; often [[hyperlink]]ed to others |
