 Yes, really! The
World Wide Web is one part of the
Internet. If you think of the Internet as a mall, the World Wide Web
would be the individual shops. |
|
| |
 I don't get it. |
 Shops are only one part of a mall, right? The mall also
contains restaurants, banks, and other businesses. This graphic shows
what I mean. |

 Wow! The Gap! Can we go there when we go to the
mall? I saw the cutest little sweater . . . |
| Later! Stay focused, Wendi. In addition to the World Wide
Web, the Internet also has email and chat, newsgroups, and other useful
tools. |
|
| |
Ah, chatrooms . . . MY favorite part of the Internet! |
| The World Wide Web consists of pages of information stored
on computers all over the world. The pages are linked by URL's or web
site addresses. To look at someone else's computer, we just click a link
or type an address. |
 |
| |
So when I go to a web site, I'm actually looking at
someone else's computer. Cool! |
| Now, Wendi, do you know what a web browser does? |
|
| |
No, but I have a feeling you're going to tell me! |
