25 years already? That's only just a year older than I am!
That said, I don't think we'd all be here today without this glorious creation. We all wouldn't be connected and discussing what's going on if WWW wasn't a thing. Happy 25th, you glorious world that is the internet.

I'm older than the World Wide Web... now I REALLY feel old. :c
However, I'm glad I was able to discover it. I mean, it's changed my life and help me meet the friends that I have currently. <3 Kudos to him for changing the world. :D

I actually feel really young. The internet was 6 years old when I was born? Seems like not a lot but still.. we've really lived our whole lives with technology, huh?

Coincidentally, Linux also turned 25. Or maybe it's not a coincidence at all? :P

The internet is actually much older! It was only the World Wide Web that was turned on 25 years ago. :)

The internet was originally conceived for the government's computers to be on the same system and enable communications in case of nuclear or unforseen happenings. That and in the 80's it was beginning to take shape and enabled colleges and science folk and the like to utilize the system. Anyways, happy bd www.
