About the connection of BAC and WWW

In connection with the launch and mass discussion of BAK, this observation will be appropriate. Now, before our eyes, a very important event for humanity is taking place at CERN - the launch of BAK. But maybe someone does not pay attention to the origin of another important invention that every Habr visitor uses and that connects millions of people around the world is also the brainchild of the European organization CERN. Initially, the project proposed by the “father” Tim Berners-Lee was intended for internal use at CERN, but then it grew to incredible proportions.

In addition to discoveries in the field of physics, CERN became famous for the fact that the hypertext project World Wide Web was proposed within its walls. English and Belgian scientists Tim Berners-Lee and Robert Kayo in 1989 proposed the global hypertext project of the World Wide Web to facilitate the exchange of information between research teams of large experiments at the LEP collider. Initially, the project was used only in the internal network of CERN. The first website at CERN appeared on August 6, 1991. However, in the early 90s, after writing and publishing the URI, HTTP and HTML specifications and their support by other Internet sites, the World Wide Web becomes truly global. On April 30, 1993, CERN announced that the World Wide Web would be free for all users.

Thanks to www you can now get all the comprehensive information about the LHC.
And this is how the first browser looked like. The screen even shows a map with the location of the LHC.



For some, maybe this will be a "warrior", but there will be those who did not know about this fact.
