Abstract
Over the past five years, the World Wide Web has changed from a resource which was known about and used by a small elite of computer scientists and researchers to a tool which millions of people use every day. The World Wide Web has remained a powerful research tool, but is now also used to find any information we wish, from the weather report on the island of Java to documentation on the Java language. You can even buy this book on-line or order a pizza!
