A. PROS (CNN) -- In 1994, most people had to call the bank to check their balances. Or inquire in person, or wait for a paper statement to arrive in the mail. Baseball box scores were found in the newspaper. Weather forecasts came over the phone from the weather bureau, or on TV. Back then, most Americans still had to lick a stamp to send mail. The World Wide Web has transformed the way people live, work and play. People can play travel agent and book all the elements of a vacation online. They can arrange for their bills to be paid automatically while they are gone. They can put a hold on mail delivery, find directions to tourist attractions and get a long-term weather forecast before they pack. All kinds of information is available. … [cont.]

What's the difference between the internet and the world wide web?
Q. I've heard that "world wide web" only refers to http:// pages, and excludes things like ftp and email. The implication was that "internet" includes things like email. What all does "internet" include, and what does "world wide web" exclude? Is their a third term for every possible piece of information exchange you can do between two computers connected on a network?
Asked by sickles - Fri Jan 8 09:24:55 2010 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Internet is short for inter-network. It is capitalized because it is referring to the thing "The Internet". You can have your own internet if you wish, but the proper noun is the global network. World Wide Web pretty much refers to web traffic. The actual data exchanged has nothing to do with the term internet, merely that it is an interconnected cluster of networks, agnostic to any devices that may be between them.

A. You're wasting your time by putting on your own site. You're better off just posting a Word file or, better yet, a PDF copy of your resume with a link, just as a convenience to people with whom you speak about a job. The only places they might search are the job sites like Monster and Dice, because there are thousands of resumes in one place at those locations.
