What URL means

I was talking last time to my sisters and some friends to visit my sites if they want some updates of my life and escapades. I told them to just type the URL of my sites in their browser and they can easily find it. Honestly I also don't know what really URL stands for. I know that it is some sort of web address but its exact meaning, I really don't know. To make the story short. Here is the meaning of URL from Wikipedia. Visit this site for more infos about URL.

In computing, a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) is a type of Uniform Resource Identifier (URI) that specifies where an identified resource is available and the mechanism for retrieving it. In popular usage and in many technical documents and verbal discussions it is often, imprecisely and confusingly, used as a synonym for uniform resource identifier. The confusion in usage stems from historically different interpretations of the semantics of the terms involved. In popular language a URL is also referred to as a Web address.
