URL
The Uniform Resource Locator (URL) provides a way of uniquely specifying the address of any document on the Internet. This is the lynchpin of WWW's embedded linking. The typical URL specifies the method used to access the resource (the protocol), the name of the host computer on which it is located, and the path of the resource, eg http://www.terena.nl/gnrt/websearch/index.html The protocol specified in this example is http (HyperText Transfer Protocol), the protocol of the World Wide Web. ...

Answer 2

Title: What do URL and http mean?

Question:
I keep seeing references to these acronyms. URL and http. What are they?
How do I use them?

Answer:
The acronym "URL" stands for Uniform Resource Locator. The acronym "http"
stands for Hypertext Transfer Protocol. You don't need to remember either
of these definitions to function in today's information society. Rather,
try to remember that a URL is a World Wide Web address and that most World
Wide Web addresses begin with "http".

For instance, somewhere in today's newspaper there's probably a URL
advertising some Web site. I don't have a newspaper to adduce something
specific, but if I did it would look something like:

http://www.washington.edu

That, of course, is the Web address for the UW Home Page. It's a URL. See
how it begins "http." URLs based on the native transport scheme of the
Web, known as HTTP, start this way. So "http" is just a scheme for
transporting information. But not all URLs use this scheme. For instance,
many Web addresses use the familiar file transfer protocol (FTP) that has
been used on the Internet for years. An example URL based on FTP might
point you to C&C's anonymous ftp site:
