This is hard to pin down. Alot of information on the web tries to give credit to Europe in the late 80s. I have been taught in my network courses that it was the U.S. around 1957. Originally networks to decentralize military computers. Then colleges and university's developed ever increasing networks. www is content from everywhere, its the network that makes it possible.
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 for Nuclear Research, 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 HTP 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.
The internet, as we know it today, was initiated by Sir Tim Berners-Lee, whilst he was based at CERN in Switzerland (now site of the Large Hadron Collider). He envisioned it as a way for scientists to communicate their data between computers. However, computers have been talking to each other since the late 60's, but it was Sir Tim who advocated it going worldwide.
www = world wide web (ie. www.wiki.com, www means it is on the world wide web, wiki being the provider of the web site, and com to show it is a commercial website)
URLs existed before the World Wide Web on the Internet.
Hypertext Transfer Protocol software is used for world wide web
The world wide web allows people to access diffrent sites.
the world wide web is long for www there is no private server for the world web it just is free for everyone to use but it contains plenty of viruses

The world wide web and the internet are the same thing. The world wide web is just an address for the internet.

The "word-wide-web" by definition is world wide. An "intranet" by definition is not world wide and closed off from the world. As the two are diametrically opposed you can not apply the world-wide-web in an intranet. However the standards and tools used to deliver the world-wide-web can be used in an intranet.
yes, that's why its called the WORLD wide web
Google is the world wide web almost everyone noes about is
There is no CEO for the World Wide Web. The World Wide Web, abbreviated as WWW and commonly known as The Web, is a system of interlinked hypertext documents contained on the Internet.
