The World Wide Web is a system of networked information servers on the Internet. The Web provides access to multimedia information (text, images, sounds, movies) stored on computers all over the world, using a hypertext document format known as HyperText Markup Language (HTML).
The documents on the Web servers are accessed using Web clients, or browsers, such as Mosaic and Netscape. These are simple "point-and-click" interfaces to the Web and other parts of the Internet such as ftp and gopher servers, Usenet News, email, etc.
