HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the WORLD WIDE WEB! Today is the 25th Anniversary of the posting of the very first web page ever posted on the World Wide Web. 25 years ago today, Tim Berners Lee posted a modest interactive page with hypertext on his NeXT (a Steve Jobs creation) at CERN and made it available to anyone who wished to connect to it. This "page" was the very first publicly available link in what was to become the World Wide Web that would be called the Internet. That page is still available here.

I remember when I had seen the opening ceremony for the 2012 summer olympics in London on tv. When the London production mentioned Mr. Lee’s name, I thought that it the USA that invented the WWW. Turned out while America invented the internet, it was the British who invented the WWW.
