What we know from just the anagram; www means world wide web. Meaning connection of some cords interlocking to form a mesh over a certain area. Since these interlock it’s possible that each is able to connect to each other if they follow the cords. This is the make-up of what we call the world wide web. A web over the entire world, connecting all computers together.
Why? Understanding that the world’s computers are connected to each other then brings up the question of how it came to be, and when it was done. A quick look at computer history shows that “Advanced Research Projects Agency, APRA, developed APRANET and first meshed together websites. Protocols were introduced and communication from one computer to another was then possible. Various leaps and bounds were pushed forward from MIT, APRA, JOSS, and various research teams to form the base of what is the internet.
In the 30 years since the beginning of the internet, the various other countries combine their connections together to form the internet. Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Greece, Spain, and many other countries combine their local networks to create the wide network. This wide network connects the world’s computer’s together. This is what we call the internet.
