Internet is now omnipresent, and the phrase "World Wide Web (www)", became synonymous with Internet. What is very interesting to note is that an extensive "World Wide Web" existed before Internet, in the form of "Logistics". Internet is merely a communication apparatus, to facilitate the smooth functioning of the logistics operations and services.
Like the "Laws of Thought" in Logic, and "Newtons Laws" in Physics, the "World Wide Web" too has three simple laws. These laws or not a big secret, and are written in almost every book on "Web Technologies", which is a mandatory course for Computer Science students. The laws can be summarized as follows.
First Law: No body (apparently) controls the "World Wide Web".
Second Law: The "World Wide Web" controls access to all resources.
Third Law: Resources can be moved around the "World Wide Web", for the most optimal use.
What is not taught in "Computer Science curriculum" is that the above three silly looking laws, constitute the "command and control" mechanism of mega empires.
