Answer to Question 1

The Web was invented between 1989 and 1991 when Dr. Tim Berners-Lee and his associates at CERN Laboratories built on the ideas of several earlier researchers and developed the initial versions of HTML, HTTP, a web server, and a web browser, the four essential components of the Web. Information being shared on the Web remained text-based until Marc Andreessen and others at NCSA (National Center for Supercomputing Applications) created a web browser with a graphical user interface. This made it possible to view documents on the Web that included colored backgrounds, images, and primitive animations. In 1994 Andreessen and Jim Clark founded Netscape, which created the first commercial browser. In 1995 Microsoft released the first version of Internet Explorer and the Web began to take off.
