World's First Website

Sir Timothy John "Tim" Berners-Lee, KBE (TimBL or TBL) (born in London, England, June 8, 1955) is the inventor of the World Wide Web and the chairman of the World Wide Web Consortium, which regulate development.

In 1980, when it was still an independent contractor at CERN, Berners-Lee proposed a project based on the concept of hypertext (hypertext) to facilitate sharing and updating information among researchers. With help from Robert Cailliau he built a prototype system named Enquire. 

After leaving CERN to work at John Poole's Image Computer Systems Ltd, he returned in 1984 as a research fellow. He used similar ideas that he used in Enquire to create the World Wide Web, where he designed and built the first browser (called WorldWideWeb and developed on NeXTSTEP) and the first Web server called httpd.
 
The first website that Berners-Lee (and therefore he is also the first web site) is located at http://info.cern.ch/ (already archived) and put online for the first time on August 6, 1991.
 

In 1994, Berners-Lee founded the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
 

Until now, Berners-Lee still remain humble and have no desire to get the popular status. Many still do not know this man's work force, the World Wide Web.
 
One of the greatest contributions in advancing the World Wide Web is by no patent so it can still be used freely.
 
On July 16, 2004 he was given the title of honorary KBE by the Queen Elizabeth II in honor of his services.
