Why Should You Read This?
If you have ever watched Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, you should’ve noticed its popular cutscene, in which...

Great Article. Only fact I would double check is where you mentioned Tim-BL wanted to connect web pages for physicians.
He was working at a Nuclear Research Facility (CERN), so I believe it was to help out Nuclear Physicists.

Yes, you're right. Mr. Baros had mentioned this in another comment and I corrected the text but I think I just fixed it in one sentence and had forgotten to correct it in other sentences. I corrected it now.
Thanks!
Great post but its pretty dense. I like the use of the expandable points. I recommend breaking the content down further into shorter posts. I think it's easier to digest the information in smaller chunks.
Thanks for your feedback Sherman. I’m glad you liked it. I just published the next part and while it’s way longer than this one, I have made it shorter than what I intended for it. The fact is that I’m trying different approaches and in order to get deep enough I need to explain more things in a single article to make things tick. But I will try to find a way to organize my posts and make them shorter and more readable. 👍
Very good article, it’s a nice way to get back to basics of things. You talked about suggestions; here’s one of mind. Don’t know if you intend to make this serie up to all the add-ins we saw coming through the years to facilitate some aspects of the web and answer particular needs we encountered. Of course there are many for backend, but there’s also many for the front-end. At the end, you’ll get a book on the history, so far, of the W3 👍😉
Thanks! Yes I'm thinking to extend the series to write on how the web has changed. It can cover many things like the newest HTML5 tags, modern CSS 3 technics, JS frameworks, AR, VR, AI, machine learning and much more.
So there are many blank pages left to fill... 😄
Great article.
Thanks for the feedback and reminding the error! 😄
I'll update the text with the correct definition of HTTP.

Oh, thanks. I corrected it. Sorry for such a big mistake.
Cool article!
I do believe that understanding the original intentions behind a technology helps us utilize them better.
The dominant text-editor WordPerfect (the DOS version) used a Markup language quite similar to HTML. So anyone who did word processing in the 80s and early 90s could write HTML.
That's interesting to know. Thanks for sharing!
Nice article, when is the next one coming?
Thanks for the feedback.
I think it might take about two weeks for me to publish it. Because it will take me a while to come up with ideas about what I should write to make the articles more useful and comprehensive.
Really excellent style, I can sense your mood through the words. Your audience will never be bored like this :)
Thanks! I'm glad you liked it. :D
Bravo! Brilliant article, thanks!
Very nice article. I really enjoyed it. You reminded me of UNIX NROFF. The era when we used is as text processor to publish or print our documents.
Great content for devs who get training from BootCamp as opposed to college.
By referring them as Physicians somewhere in the article i guess you meant Physicists .
Thanks!
Yes, it was Physicists. I corrected it.😅
Very engaging opening by using the scene from A Space Odyssey 👍
