What the web looked like in 1994, the year it became the internet

What do you remember about the web in 1994?

The earliest web pages are a far cry from today’s cyber wastelands.

Throughout 1994, millions of PC users began venturing online for the first time, many of them with Mosaic. And for the many who dialed-in through the sanitized, cloistered portals of America Online (AOL), Prodigy, or Compuserve (all of which would offer their users web browsers by the end of the year), the Web was a revelation.

    I started using “The Well” in 1987 when we returned from living in London. Still remember the guy my wife invited to our kitchen to show us something called “An Apple” in 1985. Took about 30 seconds to see that this was the key to changing bond trading globally and everyone’s lives. What a moment. Amazing how much has changed since then and change is only getting faster. What a trip.
