Twenty-one years ago, on August 6, 1991, the first website was published. It was just basic text, with some words oddly highlighted (see here).
Tim Berners-Lee, who is widely credited with inventing the World Wide Web, published that site from CERN, the world's largest physics lab in Geneva, Switzerland. He used the machine pictured above - a NeXT computer - to create the page.

Hard to believe that something so integrated into our lives and the economy has been around for such a short time. Interesting to think how long a new technology needs to settle in/normalize. And is it a good thing to settle in?
Thanks for this!
