A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is a string of characters conforming to a standardized format, which refers to a resource on the Internet (such as a document or an image) by its location. For example, the URL of this page on Wikipedia is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Resource_Locator.
An HTTP URL, commonly called a web address, is usually shown in the address bar of a web browser.
The term is typically pronounced as either a spelled-out initialism ("yoo arr ell") or as an acronym (earl or ural as in the Ural Mountains).
Tim Berners-Lee created the URL in 1991 to allow the publishing of hyperlinks on the World Wide Web, a fundamental innovation in the history of the Internet. Since 1994, the URL has been subsumed into the more general Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), but URL is still a widely used term.
The U in URL has always stood for Uniform, but it is sometimes described as Universal, perhaps because URI did mean Universal Resource Identifier before RFC 2396.

Uniform Resource Locator. It's an acronym used to denote the standardized method of assigning addresses to information on the internet. It's "uniform" because a variety of users on a variety of systems need to access content via a method that works for any system. Because each URL is unique, if you know a URL it is easy to "locate" the "resources" you want.
