THE WORLD’S FIRST WEBSITE
Every time you click on a web link, you get taken to a ‘page’ on the World Wide Web. A domain name identifies this ‘Web Page.’ And a collection of web pages identified with the same domain name make up a Website. Each website on the World Wide Web serves a particular purpose or topic such as news, commerce, or social networking.
Like many other systems, the websites on the World Wide Web also have an origin. Tim Berners-Lee published the first website on August 6, 1991. This website described the World Wide Web (which was invented earlier by Berners-Lee) and how to use it. This website was hosted at CERN (The European Organisation for Nuclear Research) on Berners-Lee’s NeXT computer, and the site’s address/URL was http://info.cern.ch.
Berners-Lee made sure web technology remained free for everyone to use as he rejected the call to patent it. Hence, the World Wide Web became a public service system that can be accessed by anyone making it the right platform to relay your ideas to the world.
The first Web browser, Mosaic, was released in 1993 by the University of Illinois’ National Centre for Supercomputing Applications. This browser is a software for accessing the information on the World Wide Web. After then, other websites such as Yahoo (1994), eBay (1995), Amazon (1995), and Google (1998) were launched.
The World Wide Web today has become a platform for the publication of several websites serving different purposes, and we at MintGraphics are here to design your website to help you get started at sharing your ideas with the world.
