Did you know the very first website is still alive and accessible today? In 1990, Tim Berners-Lee, a researcher at CERN, created the first web page, it wasn't much to look at, just plain text on a white background with a few blue links, but it was the beginning of everything. The page explained what the World Wide Web was, how to set up a server, and how to create your own pages, it was hosted on Berners‑Lee's NeXT computer, which is still at CERN today. The website wasn't publicly available until August 6, 1991, the day the World Wide Web officially went public, that date marks when the web stopped being a CERN internal project and became something the whole world could access. By 1993, CERN made the web's underlying technology freely available to everyone, that decision is what allowed the internet to grow into what we know today. You can still visit that very first page: http://info.cern.ch Just know, it won't blow you away with design, because there's no images, no fancy layouts, no JavaScript, just plain text and hyperlinks. It's a reminder of how far we've come. #w3schools #DidYouKnow #WebHistory #FirstWebsite #CERN #TimBernersLee #InternetHistory #TechTrivia
