12 Years at #10 Downing Street (a web birthday)

Most of us don't get to hang out in Silicon Valley. I decided to take a few days of vacation and come out to Mountain View and see some friends. Little did I realize that my trip would bring me out to ground zero during the 15th anniversary of the world wide web. Link to the Web Guild to read the announcement and watch the video.

I decided I couldn't let this historic date pass without some recognition ... ponder ... ponder ... how does one say Happy Birthday WWW ? With web sites! Thus via the Internet Wayback Machine I decided to give you the history of the web ... #10 Downing Street style!

The oldest year I could find was 1997. Click upon any thumbnail for an expanded view.
