Google celebrates 30th birth anniversary of World Wide Web with doodle

Google’s animated doodle marks the 30th anniversary of the World Wide Web (WWW). The doodle shows the Earth revolving inside a computer connected to a switch on its letters.

Sir Tim Berners-Lee is the man behind the revolutionary WWW. On this day, in 1989 Lee submitted a proposal titled, ‘Information Management’ to his boss. Lee had imagined to create a hypertext database with typed links, called ‘Mesh’, to help his colleagues at CERN to enable them to share information amongst multiple computers.

WWW is an information space where documents and other web resources are identified by URLs and are accessible via the internet. The resources can be accesses by users via web browsers.
