The document provides an overview of the internet and the world wide web. It explains that the internet is a global network that connects computers, while the web is a system for accessing information on the internet using websites. Websites are made up of web pages that each have a unique URL address indicating their location. Common URL extensions help identify the type of website, such as .com for commercial sites. To access the internet, a computer needs an internet service provider, modem, and web browser software. Email and browsing the web are common ways to interact and share information online, but safety precautions should be taken to protect private information.
