Maybe you’ve heard about the first email sent, but what about the first website created? What kind of website was it, and is the site still running?

The first website to come into existence on the internet was the World Wide Web Project, whose aim was to provide newbie internet users with access to lots of information on how to get around.

The World Wide Web Project homepage offers you technical support, some history on the World Wide Web project, a bibliography of W3 paper documentation and some help getting you up and running on totally cutting-edge, modern browsers like NeXTStep, MidasWWW and Line Mode Browser.

You might expect the very first website to have gone under, like Bebo or MySpace has. But no! The You do not have permission to view the full content of this post. Log in or register now. is still online for you to see! As you might expect from one of the first-ever websites, the pages are sparse and bare-bones, with zero images, graphics, and colour.

But if you’re interested in reading November’s edition of the W3 news (from 1992) and getting a sense of what it was like to be one of the first people to surf the ‘net, go ahead and check it out!
