Watch out - they aren't synonyms.  Strictly speaking, the Internet
is considerably older and more inclusive than (Sir TBL's) "World
Wide Web"!  Usenet news groups, for instance, have never been part
of the WWW, but they're certainly part of the Net.

If a non-technical term is needed, what's wrong with "web"?
