About the Web

What exactly is the World Wide Web?

Here's a very simple explanation from BBC Bitesize and a brief history from the World Wide Web Foundation.

For a slightly more in-depth read (and beware of the rabbit hole🐇), see: World Wide Web according to Wikipedia.

That's great, but if the Web is 35 years old, is it still relevant?

Absolutely! We all use it every day, although increasingly you might not even realise it. Every time you google something you are using the World Wide Web.

What are people saying about the Web?
