ABOUT

In March 1989 Sir Tim Berners-Lee proposed a new project to his employer CERN, with the goal of easing the exchange of information between scientists by using a hypertext system.[2][3] The project resulted in Berners-Lee writing two programs in 1990:The world's first web server, later known as CERN httpd, which ran on NeXTSTEP.Between 1991 and 1994, the simplicity and effectiveness of early technologies used to surf and exchange data through the World Wide Web helped to port them to many different operating systems and spread their use among scientific organizations and universities, and subsequently to the industry.
