    The first website went public 25 years ago today, on August 6th, 1991. Wild to think of how much the internet is still in its infancy and how much things have changed in such a short period of time.

    ...it was a website detailing what the World Wide Web was about...and nobody even visited it until August 23rd :'(

    what a time...
