Whatâs the Difference Between the Internet and the Web? The Internet, linking your computer to other computers around the world, is a way of transporting content. The Web is software that lets you use that contentâ¦or contribute your own. The Web, running on the mostly invisible Internet, is what you see and click on in your computerâs browser. The Internetâs roots are in the U.S. during the late 1960s. The Web was invented 20 years later by an Englishman working in Switzerlandâthough it had many predecessors.
