The World Wide Web ("WWW" or simply the "Web") is a system of interlinked,
hypertext
documents that runs over the
Internet.
With a Web browser, a user views Web pages that may contain text, images, and
other multimedia and navigates between them using hyperlinks. The Web was
created around 1990 by Tim Berners-Lee and the Belgian Robert Cailliau working
at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland. As its inventor, Berners-Lee conceived the Web
to be the Semantic Web where all its contents should be descriptively marked-up.
