Review:
World Wide Web, variously abbreviated as Web, WWW or W3, is the name for the comprehensive and interlocking system of computers, networks, daemons, languages, browsers, servers, protocols, clients and documents. HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) is the standard for requests from Web clients (or browsers) and data from Web servers (or sites or daemons). HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the formatting code that specifies the display and functions of Web documents (or files). A Web browser is the program that runs (relatively) locally and which is your interface to the W3. And a Web site is that combination of computer hardware, network links, daemon software, and HTML files which you need in order to provide information to the World...

(He also attempts to expand the collection of information supercliches with "infopike".... Rest of this review on the detail page
