Where is the headquarters of the world wide web?
The web has no central "headquarters". The WWW is made up of several thousands of separate networks that are interconnected. These networks are publically and privately owned,… and may be owned by a large corporation like Sprint or a small company like your local ISP. There are a number of organizations that have responsibility for different aspects of ensuring that the Internet continues to run properly and efficiently.Internet standards are created through the use of RFCs(Request For Comments) maintained by the IETF(Internet Engineering Task Force). The IETF is an international group of network designers, engineers, researchers, vendors and others who study different aspects of the Internet workings and come to agreement on the best ways to facilitate various tasks. Once they come to an agreement on the best way to perform a certain task, such as routing, a starndard is developed that all manufacturers of Internet equipment and developers of Internet software must comply with. Any network wishing to be connected to the Internet must be in compliance with these standards also.IP addresses and domain names come under the overview of ICANN(Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers). ICANN is responsible for Internet Protocol (IP) address, space allocation, protocol identifier assignment, generic (gTLD) and country code (ccTLD) Top-Level Domain name system management, and root server system management functions.Web pages are produced using HTML(Hyper-Text Markup Language). The standards for this are somewhat looser than Internet RFCs as there isn't a single designated maintainer of these standards. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) is probably the most prominent developer of HTML standards that web browser vendors seek to comply with. Because these standards aren't as strict, you'll see things such as web pages appearing differently when viewed through different browsers. (MORE)

Where was the world wide web invented?
The World Wide Web could be said to have originated in England, thanks to a relatively unknown chap named Tim Berners-Lee. A software consultant at the European organisation f…or Nuclear Research (CERN), Berners-Lee presented his supervisor with a proposal in 1989 outlining ideas for an electronic document exchange programme. This proposal would enable scientific papers to be read on a variety of otherwise incompatible computer systems. Initially, his superiors were not interested, but Berners-Lee persisted. When he was able to achieve the first successful communication between an HTTP client and a server using the Internet (which is actually different to the world wide web) on 25 December 1990 that he finally gained the interest, and the support, to see his proposal put into action.

Do you need the world wide web?
This is a question that would elicit differing and subjective answers. In our modern world, businesses use the web regularly. Many universities rely on the web for students to… access information. Students use the web as a way to find resources for homework and projects. So many people use the web on a daily basis for communicating with businesses, colleagues, family, friends and even strangers. There are, however, people out there who do not feel the need for a computer, or for access to the internet to use the web. Still, businesses they deal with probably do use the web. The world wide web has not been with us forever though. Just a few short decades ago it wasn't even invented. People were still able to communicate, conduct business and meet people. So I guess we didn't really need the world wide web, but now that it's here, I think we'd be a bit lost without it. (MORE)

What is the answer to 20c plus 5 equals 5c plus 65?
20c + 5 = 5c + 65 Divide through by 5: 4c + 1 = c + 13 Subtract c from both sides: 3c + 1 = 13 Subtract 1 from both sides: 3c = 12 Divide both sides by 3: c = 4 20c + 5 = 5c …+65 20c - 5c= 65 - 5.
15c = 60.
15c/15 = 60/15.
c = 4 (alternative method). (MORE)
