Information technology

Shouldn't the Internet be on the list of topics, not the World Wide Web? Do people still think the WWW is a synonym for the 'net? --User:Steinsky 20:30, 10 Aug 2003 (UTC) :They are two different things. WWW is a medium. The Internet is a signal infrastructure, and, can be considered a medium, if one is really thinking about all the devices hooked up to it (although it is hard to distinguish this medium from all of modern technological civilization, given how many things now have IP numbers and respond on IP ports). User:EntmootsOfTrolls ::Yes, but which one (or both?) should be here? I'd have put the Internet here, the WWW is just a part of that... -- User:Steinsky 01:52, 30 Aug 2003 (UTC) == Computer security == Should we show Computer security under Information security?
