|If you want information about some book available in your library, you can connect to the library's computer from home and get the information that you want. There are many such computers in different organisations giving us different types of information. These computers are connected to one another, their network is called the Internet. The Internet is a physical network of millions of computers across the world, each of which has a unique identifier. Some of these computers act as 'servers', they store data which can be accessed by other computers. The millions of computers which are part of the Internet, is like a huge library with information on almost any issue.  Initially the internet was a set of computers connected by one another and information requests were sent and received through networks.

This application is called the "World Wide Web - www".  Yes, the "www" is an application on the internet to access the Internet in the form of a web page, using an application called the Web Browser.  There are millions of pages of shared information on the computers in the network, created by many people and organizations, in the form of 'web pages' accessed using a software application called a '''web browser'''.<br>
