WORLD WIDE WEB DAY
WORLD WIDE WEB DAY
August 1, 2016
The World Wide Web is a global information medium which brings the world at your fingertips is invented by Tim Berners-Lee, a British scientist at CERN and Robert Cailliau in the year 1989. It was originally conceived and developed to meet the demand for automatic information-sharing between scientists in universities and institutes around the world.
The first website was dedicated to the World Wide Web project itself and was hosted on Berners-Lee’s NeXT machine – the original web server which is still at CERN.
On April 30, 1993 CERN put the World Wide Web software in the public domain.
On this World Wide Web Day we from KIDSCHOOLZ.COM thank Tim Berners-Lee and Robert Cailliau for their incredible invention.
