"On Aug. 6, 1991, a scientist at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) named Tim Berners-Lee unveiled a project for organizing information that he called the World Wide Web. Of the many individual projects that went into creating the Internet as we know it, this was one of the most significant steps toward bringing the Internet to the general public."
Pictured above is the world's first web server, a then state-of-the-art NeXT computer.
A note on the computer says that if the power is turned off, then the whole system becomes unavailable.
Meaning, the whole World Wide Web!
Those were the days.
