CERN Sir Timothy John "Tim" Berners-Lee, KBE, FRS, FREng, FRSA,(born June 8, 1955 in London, England) is the inventor of the World Wide Web, director of the World Wide Web Consortium(which oversees its continued development), and a senior researcher and holder of the 3Com Founders Chair at MIT's Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory(CSAIL)[1]. Informally, in technical circles, he is sometimes called "TimBL" or "TBL". Info.cern.ch was the address of the world's first-ever web site and web server, running on a NeXT computer at CERN. The first web page address was http://info.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html, which centred on information regarding the WWW project. Visitors could learn more about hypertext, technical details for creating their own webpage, and even an explanation on how to search the Web for information. There are no screenshots of this original page and, in any case, changes were made daily to the information available on the page as the WWW project developed. You may find a later copy(1992) on the World Wide Web Consortium website. This page is also interesting: http://info.cern.ch/NextBrowser.htmlthe page's have a very "Apple" look I think(NEXT computer was also a project from Steve Jobs) Sources: Me, Yahoo, Cern Giovanni 82 months ago Please sign in to give a compliment.
