Day and Web Librarian: a coincidence ?
The day of the librarian is celebrated in Brazil on March 12 , interestingly this is the date which can also be considered the foundation of the World Wide Web , because on March 12, 1989, Tim Berners-Lee published an article on this ” layer “over the internet.
Yes this is the basic explanation on the Web , an application or a software that accesses information that is online from Internet addresses , though they have the same type of numbering of e- mails , locate servers that have a DNS (Date name System) , which is a kind of ” fancy name ” the actual address .
In a basic explanation , the web is a software to browse the information that is online . Its distinguishing characteristic is the ability to click on links to open the files on computers that can be anywhere .
