Today marks the 16th anniversary of the World Wide Web. According to the timeline on the W3.org site: 'The first web page [was] http://nxoc01.cern.ch/hypertext/WWW/TheProject.html. Unfortunately CERN no longer supports the historical site.

Note from this era too, the least recently modified web page we know of, last changed Tue, 13 Nov 1990 15:17:00 GMT (though the URI changed.)' A lot has happened in 16 years and this little 'baby' has grown into quite the teenager.

I remember playing "Elite" online in the mid-80's on a "BBC-B" microcomputer. It had limitless separate players, thus creating an "internet" of sorts. I didn't see any reference to this in the timeline..?
