A WEB structure is a configuration of excessive number of foliations. It is known that some web structures are topological rigid. I will introduce the various, old and new rigidity results and the curvature of webs, and discuss the role of the curvature in the rigidity phenomena. I will introduce also a hierarchical method for computing the web curvature.
