Google’s Birthday Wishes For ‘WWW’

Bhubaneswar: Google’s new doodle on its homepage is dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the World Wide Web (WWW).

It shows an old desktop computer with a rotating globe inside the monitor. The graphics font used is also reminiscint of how things were 30 years back.

Sir Tim Berners-Lee, the man behind WWW or the prefix of URLs (Uniform Resource Locator), shared a post on WebFoundation.org website stating that half of the world’s population is already on the internet and that it is necessary to have the other half online as well. He said that the web drives “equality, opportunity, and creativity.”
