Inadvertently jobs has led to the emergence of the World Wide Web-jobs-the World Wide Web, NeXT computers-IT information Unwittingly, he contributed to the emergence of the World Wide Web

In March 1989, Tim-Bo na Lee (Tim Berners-Lee) as a software engineer at the European Particle Physics Institute, at that time, he had started the World Wide Web.

Interview at Rensselaer Polytechnic University recently, Berners explained that he was struggling to cope with a lot of people have tried to resolve an issue, but has not been successful.

Scientists from around the world came to the European Institute for particle physics, they brought their own computers, which run a variety of operating systems and software. However, scientists cannot access each other's findings.

Berners noted:

"All these systems are different, but all you have to do is read on the screen. Therefore, you can imagine a layer to map all of these systems into a single virtual system. Do not cool it? ”

He told his boss the idea Maike·sendeer (Mike Sendall) in, Sendall said: "this idea is very vague, but exciting. "He agreed that Berners used her free time to study, but Berners have purchased a special computer to do this research.

"We bought a really cool computer, NeXT computer, it is Steve Jobs (Steve Jobs) after being kicked out of Apple's research and development computer. Design concept of this computer was great, provides an excellent development environment for developers. When you boot, you receive Steve entry information in advance, ' Welcome to the NeXT, this is not a personal computer, instead of personal computers. ' It design are well suited for networking. ”

Berners says, the "human computer" concept, as well as Steve's voice gave him a deep impression.

NeXT computer sales situation is not optimistic. At one point, he even gave up production NeXT computer, preferring instead to focus on development of NeXT software. In 1996, Apple purchased NeXT company, jobs returned to Apple as the CEO. Today, the NeXT software has turned into the Mac OS x operating system.

However, in 1989, he sold a computer NeXT to a young software engineer, the fact that forever changed our world.

Following figure is Berners's NeXT computer. It became the world's first Web server, and run the first Web browser.
