Happy Birthday To The World Wide Web - Exploring Resources Connected to the Evolution of the Web


Did You Know That The Internet and the World Wide Web Are Not the Same Things?

Internet - a global computer network providing a variety of information and communication facilities, consisting of interconnected networks using standardized communication protocols. (Google)
World Wide Web - an information system on the Internet which allows documents to be connected to other documents by hypertext links, enabling the user to search for information by moving from one document to another. (Google)

Did you know that the World Wide Web (WWW) turned 3o years old on March 12?

I think most of us take for granted how easy it is to access just about anything we want to learn about on the Web, The Internet and the World Wide Web have impacted almost every aspect of our daily lives. We all know that the growth and evolution of the Web have impacted and will continue to impact how we teach and learn. I have a hard time remembering my first few years of teaching without the Web as a resource for teaching and learning. 

The birthday of the World Wide Web inspired me to start thinking about the history of the Web and my exploration began. The rest of this post is dedicated to some of the resources I explored. 



Curious about the history of the World Wide Web and how it has changed since the beginning?
