The World Wide Web (also WWW, and W3), is a concept and decentralized service created by Tim Berners-Lee in 1993, and its standards are maintained by the World Wide Web Consortum. The World Wide Web fundementally is a project whose aim is to create a network of hypertext documents, interlinked via the Hypertext Transfer Protocol. The World Wide Web is often confused for The Internet at large, but in truth the World Wide Web is only one service existing on the Internet.
The World Wide Web was a fundemental force leading to the Commercialization of the Internet in the mid-1990's, shortly after it was created. The World Wide Web is fundementally an interactive, multimedia document engine linking independently published content throughout the Internet to achieve an interlinked hypertext "web".
In the time since its creation —and also primarily due to the fact that the Web led to the commercialization of the Internet— the Web has become a confused and bloated mess that is devoid of its original purpose, and existing as a content delivery network of restrictive multimedia existing in a continually centralized format not by design but rather due to the fact that only a handful of websites exist as gateways to content in the modern world (e.g. Facebook, Google, Amazon).
