The World Wide Web turns 15, still in Infancy, says Founder
The World Wide Web (www) has turned 15 years today. It was founded by Sir Tim Berners-Lee, who invented the web idea first on March 1989, it went word wide on April 30, 2008 as a free stuff which anyone can use
It revolutionizes the way we communicate today. However, the founder Tim Berners-Lee said, “The web is still in its infancy.”
The World Wide Web has many birthdays.
(Sir Tim Berners-Lee created the web in 1989)March 1989, when Tim Berners-Lee handed his boss a short document entitled Information Management: a Proposal, is one.
Christmas of the following year, when the Web was up and running on two computers, is another.
But perhaps the most important Web anniversary of all is 30 April 1993.
That’s the day that Cern put the web in the public domain, thereby ensuring that the world would have a single system for accessing the Internet, instead of a Microsoft Web, a Macintosh Web and who knows, perhaps even an Amstrad Web.
