The internet was the result of some visionary thinking by people in the early 1960s who saw great potential value in allowing computers to share information on research and development in scientific and military fields. J.C.R. Licklider of MIT, first proposed a global network of computers in 1962. As more computers were added, multiple independent networks were created and that was the beginning of the internet. Constant research and technical improvements made the internet grow and develop into the world wide web as we know it today. The world web as used in common language (see, for instance, Merriam-Webster's definition) seems a good choice to describe this tool that is becoming more and more popular all over the planet. Just try and imagine for a few seconds the thousands of computers and the millions of wires inside and outside themthere must be in the entire planet. Can you get the picture? Must be similar to a really huge spiderweb. And then it is all so fine when your 'puter is running smoothly... and so frustrating when it freezes or breaks down that most of us feel lost or kinda caught in a trap of somekind. So again the word web seems a very good pick. Hope this helps!
