The Internet is the large container, and the Web is a part within the
container. It is common in daily conversation to abbreviate them as the
"Net" and the "Web", and then swap the words interchangeably. But to be
technically precise, the Net is the restaurant, and the Web is the most
popular dish on the menu. <br><br>
Here is the detailed explanation: <br><br>
<b>1: The Internet is a Big Collection of Computers and Cables.</b> <br><br>
The Internet is named for "interconnection of computer networks". It is a
massive hardware combination of millions of personal, business, and
governmental computers, all connected like roads and highways. The
Internet started in the 1960's under the original name "ARPAnet".
ARPAnet was originally an experiment in how the US military could
maintain communications in case of a possible nuclear strike. With time,
ARPAnet became a civilian experiment, connecting university mainframe
computers for academic purposes. As personal computers became more
mainstream in the 1980's and 1990's, the Internet grew exponentially as
more users plugged their computers into the massive network. Today, the
Internet has grown into a public spiderweb of millions of personal,
government, and commercial computers, all connected by cables and by
wireless signals. <br><br>
No single person owns the Internet. No single government has authority
over its operations. Some technical rules and hardware/software
standards enforce how people plug into the Internet, but for the most
part, the Internet is a free and open broadcast medium of hardware
networking.<br><br>

<b>2: The Web Is a Big Collection of HTML Pages on the Internet.</b><br><br>
The World Wide Web, or "Web" for short, is a massive collection of
digital pages: that large software subset of the Internet dedicated to
broadcasting content in the form of HTML pages. The Web is viewed by
using free software called web browsers. Born in 1989, the Web is based
on <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://internet.about.com/library/aa_protocols_071202.htm">hypertext transfer protocol</a>,
the language which allows you and me to "jump" (hyperlink) to any other
public web page. There are over 65 billion public web pages on the Web
today.<br></div></div></blockquote></div><br></div> </div></blockquote></div><br></div></div></div><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></body></html>
