URL is very much an out of date term, as far as general use goes. People think in terms of "links", and if they understand a little more they'll likely respond to you talking about an "address". Most of an entire generation only really interacts with these concepts through the streamlined methods of a phone or tablet interface, which have gone out of their way to hide scary concepts like the actual file system.
