The World-Wide Web (WWW) is a term coined by Tim Berners-Lee, for the global web of interconnected (scientific) information that he envisaged when he invented the web at the European Nuclear Research Centre (CERN) in the late 1980s. Often simply called “the web”, WWW (sometimes written W3) is often incorrectly thought to be a synonym for the Internet.
