Internaut Day

All the fans of World Wide Web (WWW) are celebrated the Internaut Day on 23th August. This day is the birthday of WWW.

World Wide Web is designed and developed by the computer scientist Sir Tim Berners-Lee at CERN laboratories in Switzerland and he introduced special key technologies about URL (Uniform Resources Locator), HTTP (Hypertext Transfer Protocol) and HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language) in 1990. The WWW was opened to the world on August 23, 1991. The term Internaut is made from a combination of Internet and Astronaut. WWW is a service of the internet. Internet gives the network that carries information. WWW gives the space to store information on this network. It uses web pages and documents for this work.

After introducing WWW, everybody can use Internet without technical knowledge. Using Internet becomes a simple and quick thing.
  • Anybody can connect to the internet without intercession of government.
  • Anybody can create web sites and host them.
  • Anybody can upload information for the web sites.
Because of these facts, this field builds up immediately.
With this online experience, Search Engines, Forums, Social Communities…… are introduced to the society.
Today, there is an estimate of 1.07 billion websites and 4.73 billion pages (the number is growing every minutes.) and also an estimate of 3.4 billion people uses this WWW around the world according to Internet Live Stats.
