We should also take a few moments to recognize that the world’s first website was launched 25 years ago.
The official birth of the web might have born back in 1989 as a simple concept to allow the automatic sharing of information between scientists in universities and institutes across the globe.
“The Internet is a huge network of computers all connected together. The World Wide Web is a collection of webpages found on this network of computers.”
Unfortunately, global citizens were not able to digest this early form of sharing information until August 1991, but make no mistake; this act laid the foundations for the always online and connected digital world that we often are guilty of taking for granted.
