This Venn diagram shows two circles labeled 'Websites' and 'Web Applications'.

In the Websites circle, features like 'Mostly static', 'Informational', and 'Read-only' are listed. This means websites usually show information that does not change often and users mainly read or view content.

In the Web Applications circle, features like 'Interactive', 'User input', and 'Dynamic data' are listed. This means web applications let users do things like fill forms, play games, or edit documents online.

The overlapping area lists common features: both are accessed through a web browser, use the internet, can have pictures and graphics, and use links to move between pages.

This helps understand that websites mainly provide information, while web applications allow user interaction and tasks.

Variations - 2 Challenges
[intermediate] Draw a flowchart that helps decide if a given online service is a website or a web application. Use yes/no questions about interactivity and user input.
[advanced] Draw a detailed comparison table between websites and web applications including purpose, interactivity, examples, and technology used.
