Seeing as the World Wide Web is an extension to the internet idea, the Internet came first.
The Internet started as a science project between universities, and it grew from there, to become what we today know as the World Wide Web. The Internet is what makes the World Wide Web work - a networking of networks.
E-mail was in use for 20 years before the WWW was.
Discussion:
E-Mail was used on ARPANET, the military version of the Internet, in late 1971. Ray Tomlinson's team wrote the first e-mail software. He made the decision to use the '@' sign because he wanted a symbol that wasn't used for anything else. It is ironic that the amphora has been a symbol of trade and transport throughout history.
In August, 1991 Tim Berners-Lee posted on the alt.hypertext newsgroup where to download the CERN web server and text-based browser. Web servers were then launched around the globe. Shortly after a new newsgroup was created named comp.infosystems.www.

WWW stands for World Wide Web and there is a big difference. Some people confuse the Internet which came before the WWW. The World Wide Web is a way to access information on the Internet. The Internet is much larger -- a massive network that connects computers together. The www is a part of the Internet.
The world wide web and the internet are the same thing. The world wide web is just an address for the internet.
There actually isn't any difference. The world wide web is the internet. The internet is the program for the world wide web. Mozilla Firefox is an internet browser, but it's still the same as Internet Explorer.

The internet and world wide web are the same thing. The world wide web was originally a very basic network between 4 universities and was started in 1969. At this point there were no websites or emails. Information was shown in some other way apparently. Later some person came up with the term "Internet". Also if you wondered the first email was sent in either 1971 or 1972. some books say 71 others 72
The Internet can be compared to the road to get to the world wide web which is the street address.
