The Web Extends
Only a few people had access to the first Web browser, which ran on a NeXT computer. To make it more accessible, Nicola Pellow created a simpler browser called the ‘line-mode’ browser. This browser could run on any system.
In 1991, Tim Berners-Lee released his WWW software. It included the ‘line-mode’ browser, Web server software, and a library for developers. In March 1991, the software was available to CERN colleagues. By August 1991, Berners-Lee announced the WWW software on Internet newsgroups, and interest in the project spread worldwide.
History Of The Web
History Of The Web: The World Wide Web (WWW) is the main way people find information on the Internet. The Web lets users access a huge amount of content, including the deep web, the dark web, and the surface web. This content is connected by hyperlinks, which are electronic links that connect related information, making it easy to find.
Hypertext allows users to click on words or phrases to find more information. Hypermedia includes links to images, sounds, animations, and movies. The Web works using the Internet’s client-server format: servers store and send documents when asked, while clients request these documents.
Browser software helps users view these documents. Special browsers, like Tor, let users browse anonymously. Hypertext documents are written in HyperText Markup Language (HTML) and have an online address called a Uniform Resource Locator (URL).
