Who lnvented the World Wide Web?
Tim Berners-Lee (born 1955) invented the World Wide Web. His first version of the Web was a program named "Enquire". At the time, Berners-Lee was working at CERN, the European Particle Physics Laboratory located in Geneva, Switzerland. He invented the system as a way of sharing scientific data ( and other information) around the world, using the Intemet, a world -wide network of computers and hypertext documents. He wrote the language HTML (HyperText Мark-up Language), the basic language for the Web, and devised URL' s ( universal resource locators) to designate the location of each web page. HTTP (HyperText Transfer Protocol) was his set of rules for linking to pages on the Web. After he wrote the first browser in 1990, the World Wide Web was up and going. Its growth was ( and still is) phenomenal, and has changed the world, making information more accessible than ever before in history. Berners-Lee is now а Principal Research Scientist at the Laboratory for Computer Science at MIT (Massachusetts Institute of Technology) and the Director of the W3 Consortium.
