In March 1989 Berners-Lee wrote a proposa for "a large hypertext database with typed links", but it generated little interest
By Christmas 1990, Berners-Lee had built all the tools necessary for a working Web
On August 6, 1991, Berners-Lee posted a short summary of the World Wide Web project on the alt.hypertext newsgroup.
From 1992-1995 the world wide web was mainly used by university-based scientific departments or physics laboratories
In April 1992 the release of Erwise, a graphical browser
In 1993 Mosaic graphical browser was introduced
In May 1994 the first International WWW Conference, organized by Robert Cailliau, was held at CERN
In September 1994, Berners-Lee founded the World Wide Web Consortium
1996-98 the Web became more Commercialised
1999-2001 there was a large increase in dot-com sites, but most of these went bust after they burnt through their venture capital.
In the aftermath of the dot-com bubble, telecommunications companies had a great deal of overcapacity as many Internet business clients went bust. That, plus ongoing investment in local cell infrastructure kept connectivity charges low, and helping to make high-speed Internet connectivity more affordable.
With advancements in coding more sites aimed at providing the user with a more enjoyable experience, such sites as Google, Ebay and Amazon sprung up giving people the chance to buy and sell products and easily find thing via the web.
