Networks & Internet Digital Literacy

The World Wide Web (WWW) is a huge collection of websites — like houses, shops, and libraries — built next to the roads of the Internet.

When you browse the Web, you are visiting these places, just like traveling through a big city!

🧠 What is the Internet?

The Internet is the giant system of roads and highways that connect computers around the world. It's the physical network — made of cables, satellites, and wireless signals.

💡 Tip: The Web is only one part of the Internet. The Internet is much bigger!

🚗 What is a Browser?

A web browser (like Chrome, Safari, or Firefox) is like your vehicle to travel across the Web. It helps you visit different websites, just like a car lets you visit different places in a city.

🗺️ What is a Search Engine?

Sometimes you don't know the exact address of a website. That's why we use search engines like Google or Bing — they are like maps or guides that help you find the right place.

📚 Fun fact: The first search engine was called Archie, created in 1990!

👨‍🔬 Who invented the Web?

The World Wide Web was invented by Sir Tim Berners-Lee in 1989 at CERN (a big science lab in Europe).

The first website ever created is still online: Visit the first website.
