Web, internet and hypertext

The idea of an interconected network that allows information exchange between distant points, was born in a the middle of a divided world, after second world war. From ARPA (Advanced Research Projects Agency) to W3C (world wide web consortium) the mission pursued by the information highway and web has changed, facing communicational needings involved in globalization, but leading technological development.

It´s relevant to especify about terms meaning related, and differences between them. Firstable the "internet" concept is about the network itself, the linked computer connections that we call "Information Highway". "Web" , in the other hand, is the interconected information or documents linked by "hypertexts" or "hyperlinks". Those "hyper" are data units (words, images or other resources) that relates several information estructures.
