Timeline • 1991: • Release of a simple WWW browser, an information server and a library implementing essential functions for developers • 1993: • There were around 50 known information servers • Two kinds of browser: • original development version, only available on NeXT machines • "line-mode“ browser, limited in power and user-friendliness
