WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LINK
AND A HYPERLINK
A link is simply an address that specifies the location of a resource on the
Internet just like an URL which
takes you to the web pages
identified by the linked
URLs. Hyperlinks, on the other
hand, are links that you can click
on or activate with a pointing
device in order to jump to the
target page.
USES IMPORTANCE OF HYPERLINKS
Hyperlinks are the objects in web pages, and in some word processors,
that allow you to click on them in order to have your computer
automatically display and jump either to another place in the document,
or to another document altogether, or to a specific place in another
document.
