based on a distributed hypertext system (a global hypertext system) which eventually gave birth to the World Wide Web.Tim Berners-Lee working at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research handed a document to his supervisor Mike Sendall entitled "Information Management : a Proposal". "Vague, but exciting" is how Mike described it, and he gave Tim the nod to take his proposal forward.
A mere two decades after its inception, the Web has revolutionized almost every aspect of our lives, from business to healthcare to relationships.
Happy Birthday to the World Wide Web - and sincere thanks and respect to Sir Tim Berners-Lee.
