what is the internet?
Browser
Browser - an aplication used to access the world wide web. Here are some examples I use chrome and firefox.
World Wide Web
The world wide connects to the internet and allows us to access different web sites. It allows documents to be connected to other documents through hyperlinks. The world wide web is much like the internet but is larger.
a web host is something that provides us with a web server. For example if the web server for gmail in singapore goes down that means we cannot access the website we are trying to get to.
