  1. LESSON 7
    1. WWW
      1. Tim Berners Lee -1991
        1. consists of millions of web pages linked together and content that appears on them
          1. subset of the internet; consists of web pages that can be accessed using a web browser. Internet is network where all info sits
          2. HTML
            1. hypertext markup language
              1. HTML Tags
