A Short History of The Internet

THE WEB - html, http, url web page : html, javascript, css

MArch 1989, Tim Berners-Lee publishes 'information management: A proposal'. Could login to servers via physical terminals and ssh. He was working on improving terminal interactions with server environments. http://www.w3.org/History/1989/proposal.html hypertext -Ted Nelson "Computer lib / Dream Machines" defines computer lib championing creative use of technology and computers. He defines Hypermedia in his unstrcutured, loose writng format. Ted Nelson believed in central ownership and a network where users would license in a cut/copy format rather than a c opy paste format. Brings up the argument about the freedom of web2.0 where all the content is free,but access through telecomms costs. Another system would be free acess but pay for content , that way authors would get credited and payed.

HTTP protocol we no longer view the "original" html doc on the server, we request php,perl that access the html for updates , and caches the file so that it doesnt have to reload it to show it to the browser client every time.

Hosting & Databases The economics of hosting... Its only as stable as the next Bussiness plan. Which isnt wrong, its just bad for us to assume that this is unfair (that when a company changes its bussiness plan and deletes your account its not fair) If you did have an economic network where you became the purchaser or the license owner of content when you embedd, rather than being the customer, you become the buyer and therefore if the company/ server goes down than you can still have ownership.

Active archives When 1 person (or millions of people) loose their myspace or geocities page all you hear is complaints, but the scale is greater when cultral institutions and large bussiness (or their server hosting companies) sink and cant pay to recover their archives.
