Happy Birthday WWW!
On this day in 1989, the World Wide Web was invented by English scientist Tim Berners-Lee.

In 1990, he wrote the first web browser while employed at CERN in Switzerland.

Yep, we have him to thank for all this internet-based madness

Must be YOUR education - but then again reading and reading comprehension are two separate things (they teach both at UGA BTW )

I did not say Internet/Arpanet (I met some of those guys too and UGA had a 5 nodes as well )

I was wishing Happy Birthday to the World Wide Web - a completely different entity

Gotcha!!
